Reasons to be cheerful Part 2: Be Stihl my beating heart......

......or why I love my chainsaw!

After the seriousness of my last posting , I felt I needed to shift gears and lighten up a little. How better to do that than confess my love for my McCullough chainsaw! I spent an extremely enjoyable few hours yesterday hacking away at my wood pile with The Beast as my constant companion. Now it might not be the biggest or baddest chainsaw out there but it gets the job done. There's something primaeval about holding a high revving 2-stroke engine in your hands and zipping through a pile of wood. If you have never had the pleasure, I can recommend it.

And, yes, I do sing "I'm a lumberjack..." whilst in sawdust heaven.
