Dear all

So now I'm back from our holiday I though I'd just say a quick thanks to all the contributors and not least of all Comrade Race for being such a good sport!! I'm just sorry my phone wasn't up to properly capturing the colours. They were much more orange in reality.

In all seriousness though I learnt something new, thanks to John's info on the composition and colour of flames. I know we jest about fire but there is something I find genuinely fascinating about it. I think it's my late grandmother's fault as she kept her coal fire going long after gas became the vogue in the UK and I distinctly recall spending hours watching it as the flames played around in the fire place.

So thanks again all.

ATB.

Andrew my kindred spirit ! Yes I too had a childhood at times with open fires, perhaps that was the start. Before I retired I had a really large stove in the workshop at least 36inches in the round. One late afternoon we loaded up the burner while we were cleaning up . Upon turning back to it the sides had changed from brown to nearly pink :surprised::surprised::surprised::surprised:! I hate to think what the temperature was. Stil have a wood burner at home, after years of being able to have a open fire if needed.
Really you cant obtain a burnt look to joists or anything lie wood or material ( Tarps ) with out having actually burnt it. :nerd:

Nothing is as fascinating as a. 'real' fire, worst thing ever when the main fireplace was removed from the house, but a 40 gallon oil drum makes a great 'fireplace' in the garden :thumb2:
