burning bushes


well i eventually managed to burn the pile of hawthorn bushes. you would think with a further education in fire related studies, I would have found this easy. but no. I think I was over exuberant, poured petrol on it, fitted in some matches and.......nothing
well, the petrol burned, but the bushes didn't, even when i squirted more petrol on.
of course, petrol burns quickly, so the wood dint get a chance to heat up and combust. idiot. diesel is better as it burns more slowly, and especially good if you soak something in it, then burn that at the base of the huge pile of bloody bushes.

all done now, was a good fire. Sorry for not filming it Colin.
