A discovery!

[Jane&Ziggy]

I am not thrifty. Far from it. But I was very pleased to discover that old fizz corks make fantastic natural firelighters. It doesn't even matter whether they came from Prosecco or Champagne! I am thrilled and have been testing them all evening *hic* *singe*

Hahaha. OH is going to be away for a few days and I might have to light the fire myself in his absence. Think I'd better pop open what's left of the Christmas bubbly in preparation ...

LOL what are you like! That is an interesting observation though and now I know what to do if I'm ever in need of a firelighter.

I will remember this tip when trying to light the BBQ when the weather warms up.

I had forgotten that trick, my mum has been struggling with the wood burner in their new house so I will pass it on, she will be very pleased about such a resourceful excuse to drink more bubbly!
