The fires in the fireplaces here in ireland use sod. It is really hard to get lit, but once its hot it burns suprisingly well. It has a strange musky nice smell. The flora is very different too. Around the bottom of all of the trees is a fuzzy layer of wet moss. It rains quite a lot here but it usually isnt to wet to be out in. It stopps from time to time and once in a while you actually see the sun, but it seems kind of weird when you do. There are a lot of vines and its pretty green almost everywhere.
