If you lived in Epsom and wanted one to buy night’s worth of firewood tomorrow morning, where would you go?

Unsurprisingly supermarkets and petrol stations have nada because it’s apparently July

That BBQ shop in Leatherhead on the roundabout where Majestic is. (If it's open.) They have kiln dried logs, chimenea wood and all sorts. All year.

B&M up here in the north are still selling bags of firewood and kindling - must be the same nationwide.

Have a look in Book of Face local group.

There’s always firewood on there.

Sometimes even free

Home Bargains has bags of firewood outside usually if you've got one of those nearby.

Do you mean someone's fence has fallen over and they think they can get some mug to get rid of it by putting it on Facebook as firewood without even getting off their sofa?

Firewood is not essential. If that's what he wants, he could simply ignite his sofa.
There must be a special reason he specifically wants firewood. scratchchin

Thought I’d try the nearest places before going to Leatherhead and visited the of those farmy nursery places without success before going to the Homebase. Paid £22.50 for 30kg so I’ve obv overpaid but was just pleased to be able to get wood so quickly.
