firewood suppliers in Le Mans?
« on: June 11, 2013, 06:04:51 pm »
Hi guys and gals,

Just downloaded and printed out your excellent guide to Le Mans and although it's perfect i'm still looking for a firewood supplier in Le Mans. We will be arriving at tertre rouge monday early and like to stock up on wood to burn 'cause we like a little fire to keep us warm in those cold nights... ideas anyone?

Sorry, forget to mention that i allready googled my ass off on "bois de chauffage"but only got suppliers that demand a minimum order of at least 3 cubic metres.....that's a bit to much for our renault megane estate..and for Le Mans! so what do you think? just go to one of these places and hope for the best?

The best way I've seen of achieving this, is to take an upright piano.......

Here's some 'after' photos of said piano (plus a couple of convenient pallets).
