Our log man is charging 300YTL for 2 ton of orange logs and 500YTL for 2 ton of olive. He is very fair and we have always been happy with the logs he has supplied us. If anyone is interested please ring 05338470144 and we can put you in contact with him as he does not speak english.

Susie the reason logs are more expensive this year is because there are less trees to cut down. Even the forestry dept are not cutting olive this year and i am sure they are charging between 230-240 ton for pine.

I suppose some of the more elderly expats could have a problem getting wood in winter.

As a rough estimate, if you just have the fire burning in the evening, how long does 2 tons of wood last?

re msg 20



God knows how you burn 1 ton a week. We only have the fire going from about 5.30 to 10.30 and 3 tons lasts us through the entire winter, By the way I pay 150ytl per ton for Olive wood and it's good dry stuff NOT this years cut which is difficult to burn.



msg1 if you want his number let me know on this site

Gibson Me too for logs...



We do go and collect most of our own wood... and it's good exercise but it doesn't hurt ot have a fallback option...



My favourite electric guitar sound for jazz by the way Gibson ES 335 only wish I could play but being a leftie it was not offered as an option when I was at school... still the drums are good and noisy.

Teresa; Ring Mehmet on 0533 8657159. Tell him you got the number from Graemein Ozankoy.

glad to hear you like 335. The most versatile guitar ever made. I play Blues and rock mostly and have a vintage Blonde (natural)335. Also have a Flying v and a Les paul Special (both original Gibsons). Used to have an old Les Paul standard but sold it when I came out here as I had too many guitars.

Gibson 335, Would like his no: and just hope that a ton lasts more than a week or else i'll be burning my shoes instead. How do they afford £60 per week for 1 fire? Not as if it heats the rest of the house. Talk about money to BURN.
