The message
from gary davis contains these words:

Getting rid of firewood is a problem? I truly find that hard to believe.
Put a sign up at the end of your driveway...it takes...15 minutes. FREE
FIREWOOD.

Burning wood in the fireplace is not permitted in many urban parts of
the UK, because of air pollution.
In areas where it is permitted, nobody with half a brain would
knowingly burn leylandii in the house. On an open fire, it spits sparks
into the room. In a woodstove, it tars up the chimney.
