One of the sticking points that Surfer Boy and I have in regard to our extension is an open fireplace. I am a firm believer that an open fire is a necessity to a home whereas my 'green' husband quite rightly complains of their ferocious appetites for timber and their inherent mess.
I know he is right and I am aware that the open fire place is by it's very nature, outdated in our modern homes - but I still want one!
Surely no home is complete without a hearth to gather around?

Tell him he'll regret it if he doesn't put one in. It was only tonight I was lamenting to a visitor the lack of a fireplace in our house. Tonight is the perfect night for it.
open fires go all the way back to the cave man, it is a natural source of heat
Nothing better than the smell of an open fire, not to mention the added bonus of being able to toast marshmallows!
