I hope they will fit

 For the past five weeks I have been looking out on to a large pile of split logs. These have sat in the far corner of the front lawn since I dealt with the aftermath of Storm Darragh.

The recent departure of the Series 2 Land Rover has made ample space in the car port, and I spent today moving the logs under cover.

The garden now looks slightly tidier and the carport is once again filled.* At least the logs will start to dry out and I will be sheltered from the weather as I start to stack them tidily against the wall. 

Basically I have piled a large tree in the carport and I am wondering how much space it will need when it is stacked ... I hope it will fit. 

I have also realised that stacking the logs will be the fourth time I have handled the damned things; felling, splitting, transferring to the dry store and stacking. It's no wonder they cost two hundred quid a tonne.

* I am starting to wonder whether there is some universal law that means that any clear space will soon become filled ... it is an aspect of entropy, perhaps?
