The son in law and daughter have a log burner and I have never heard him mention about any natural wood he won't burn. We have a big wood skip at work that costs 400 notes to be emptied every few months with brocken pallets he came the other week and filled a big van up with suitable wood pallets and not them that are coloured blue or red though he says it's a pain cutting them up and prefers logs to pallet latts. 

Am the same with mine , if it's dry and burns it's going in ! And if it ain't nailed down it's in the van and coming home with me lol. Years ago while I was mooching about I found a council yard with logs in. So went back with my mate very early one Sunday morning and we dressed all in hi viz to look like council workers. We went in 2 cars with 2 wheel barrows and filled our boots.  A couple walking there dog was suspicious and asked us what we was up to.  I said I was on community service lol and cracked on and filled the car and van. We did the yard a good few times before it dried up. I wouldn't dream of buying wood, it just comes home with me lol.

If your stacking now would be good to get some other woods to mix in so when you come to use it you can just grab it as it come so to speak.

Cheers Arry,

I dunno about burning it but I've pruned enough of them over the years its a really soft wood isn't it.  A treat to prune after doing oaks and beech

We had a load this year for the cabin. Burnt well enough. It’s not ash mind. But suppose it is when you’re finished lol.

Lime burns fine when dry but like willow, poplar its burns fast you need a conveyor belt to feed it lol best mix it with other more suitable wood more ash coming down than ever at present not complaining mind birch is my favourite to burn
