Just been quoted £3500 (three and a half thousand) for a stove installation into the current coal fire space. That doesn't include the stove. 

WTAF?

Yes, and my suspicion also.

Not sure how much of the following is actually essential (some obviously is of course):

 

Removal of old fireplace 

Open up inglenook 

Removal of brick & rubble

Install liner and adaptor 

Fit closure plate 

Backfill chimney with insulation 

Fit rain cap 

Put in metal studding and resistant board 

Lay natural slate hearth 

Install stove with enamel flue pipe

Carry out spillage test

Fill out data plate 

HETAS certificate

Are you not thinking of Lynsey Sharp rather than Laura Muir?

I am. Shit.

That's ridiculous. Average is probably around 2000-2500 including burner and installation.

If you do get a wood burner and you have a large room, get one of the wee fans that blows the air around the room, it makes a fair difference.

Often think back to the Sky Sports SPL intro where they got fans from each club to do a wee cheer for their team, but made it relevant to that respective club. For example: a farmer to represent St Johnstone; a steel worker for Motherwell; operatives at the Falkirk Wheel for Falkirk etc etc...then decided to just use a baldy baśtard shouting “C’mon St Mirren” in a random pub for them.

Every time we read the work Falkirk, my mate and I have the image of the Wheel guy shouting “Falkirk”  like an utter simpleton..

Some Pr.cks will steal anything.

 

German police have launched an investigation into the disappearance of a peculiar phallic-shaped sculpture from a mountainside in Bavaria, local media say.

The two-metre tall (6.5ft) wooden statue was apparently chopped down over the weekend, the Allgaeuer Zeitung newspaper reported

 

The statue stood for years on the Grünten mountain, south-west of Munich.

Now, all that remains of the monument is a coloured drawing of a penis.

I read they're going to put up a Thatcher statue in Grantham so perhaps someone is trying to save money by nicking that one.
