Roots and Boots....a very successful day!

This is what it looked like before the Roots and Boots guys got stuck in....they worked their socks off literally all day, that is the adults....the children...well we didn't see much of them, they had their own fire! Not sure why as ours reached over 6 foot at one point!!
The heap on the left was the pile we attacked with saws and loppers!




 It was a hot fire!! 




Light was at the end of the tunnel on the massive pile, we had climed the mountain and found day light the other side...it took all day!
Reflecting at the end of the day...we kept saying that was it, no more cutting and putting on the fire, but we ALL kept finding annoying bits to cut and pop on the fire! I was there hours after everyone left until dark keeping an eye on the burning fire. A brilliantly successful day & THANK YOU to those that turned up with clean nice clothes & sorry you went home with holes in tops, hats and burnt hair!
