Somerset (OK, Swedish really) Log Candles. For sale at this year's Festival. 1/3 off for eFesters

[Sawdusty surfer]

Hi, a while back I tested the water re the demand for log candles at Glastonbury. Seems there really is a demand. I'm going to be taking about 100 of them to the festival this year. They will be for sale at the bottom of the Croissant Neuf Field.

They are made from locally (Chard,Somerset) grown Larch, Spruce and Douglass Fir. Size wise the smallest are about 10" diameter by 17" high.They come with instructions (should you need them!) and an eco firelighter for east lighting. They will burn for two to four hours. I'll be selling that size for £12, but £8 to posters on here. There will also be some larger ones available.

They are a lovely focal point in your camp , at the Stone Circle or pretty much anywhere (NOT at the front of the crowd at a main stage!) It is just like a camp fire but much more contained and compact.You can toast marshmallows on them or even put a kettle or frying pan on top.

It will not damage the ground and leave a hole like a campfire. Holes from firepits are a hazard to the Worthy Farm herd of cows if not properly filled in afterwards.

If anyone is interested in the eFester's discount, this is how it works. You don't have to commit now, nor pay anything now. You can change your mind at any time. (Bloody hell, that sounds like the smallprint) If you think that you may like one, to get the eFester's discount just send me your eFest username by text to 07885139827.I will then try to reserve you one (should you want more than one, say so in the text)

When you come to buy one, just say you are an eFester and I'll be able to check texts and you'll get sorted out. This also means that if they are selling well I'll be able to text you at the festival to tell you to get your arse in to gear and buy one before they sell out.

Cool. Will text you sir.

[Mardy]

Not usre I'll be able to text you, but anyway, they look cool and might well get one for our campsite. Nice one, again, Sawdusty (you're playing a blinder this year)

[moheetoes]

They look great, would be nice to try and get one for our camp. I will text you too.

Would love one for Tuesday night at the caravan but once the festival is in full swing we'll rarely be up there.

Will pop my head round for a chat if I think of it though. Love the look of them.

No problem if you want one for the Tuesday, I'll be on site full time from the Saturday before the festival starts. even if you don't buy one, drop around for a cuppa

Hi sawdusty. I love these and am definitely interested. Bit of a random question, especially if it's not you! - But do you sell your things at Puriton hill?

Yes. in the huge layby with the burger van in it

[giantkatestacks]

I agree with Mardy. Will try and pop over on the Weds as we'll be there for Biggles.

Couple of questions, Sawdusty.

They look lovely, and I would love one, but I spend little time at camp. However, we do tend to sit around the camp for a few hours after the bands at Latitude, so I'd like to take one there. I'm assuming you just sell these at Glasto? So if that's the case I'd be buying one at Glastonbury at then keeping hold of it for Latitude. So I'm wondering if they go off? If they're not too massive to lug back home? And if this sounds like a very stupid idea?

[ladybird33]

Thought so, I think you've said on here before. I don't suppose you're around this weekend are you? And if so would you have fire logs with you? :-D

[CanWeRest]

Looks really kewl!

Hi, yes will be selling them at Glastonbury at the bottom of the Croissant Neuf Field...No its not a stupid question...but no they don't go off...well, they probably would after a decade or two. Possibly dry out and crumble, but will be fine for several years. They are easy to carry and can be sat upon on route like a stool. Hope this helps, J

Hi,yes I'll be there Fri till Sun...then won't be back again for two or three weeks as I'll be at the festival. If you want a fire log, let me know. Even if you don't want one and are passing, drop by and I'll rustle up a cuppa j

[buddiepaul]

they look excellent. I will send a text as well.

[mandolin]

Texted a little while ago about wanting a couple of the larger ones. Possibly should have asked how large they are. We will be able to carry them across the site, won't we?

I have this picture of myself and mr mandolin doing "to me, to you" through the market area! Not a bad picture, I have to addmit.

[Waapster]

Are they single use or is there a way to "recharge" them?

Wonderful! Thank you! Could I have 1 fire log please? I'm in Bw sat lunch, so will either pop along in the afternoon or Sunday morning. A cuppa and a pilton natter can never be turned down!

[whatmidlifecrisis?]

Text sent. We will be up with our trolley at some point Wednesday. What's your tipple sawdust?

[guypjfreak]

they look great old son

[Glastoboy]

Love it. Top work fella. Might come and see you.

[ICGenie]

I've seen these before they are great. Text sent

[Musicnwine]

We had a couple of these logs a couple of years ago. They are really effective. Used one up near the stone circle and one back by the tent. Very effective and totally contained and controlled fire. I will send a text to reserve one. Many thanks.
