My uncle is a turf cutter, at some point during the year he will be trucking his cuttings about to people who want it.

It smells indescribably delicious, that's why. You'll feel like an authentic citizen of Westeros if you have a t!urf fire. Especially during the winter. Those little plastic brick things are for the elderly. If anybody wants a cargo of real turf in Cork county hit me up and I'll get my uncle to contact you. He should send bricks through the post to convert people.
You'll have to find wood or peat soon anyway because the government has decided to eliminate coal:

I've just noticed that this shoddy web design has fooled me into thinking this was a current article. Look at where they put the current date and 'published' date! I'll leave it up anyway, it's sort of informative.
They might ban open fires too at some point but never fear, your local country entrepreneurs will surely swing into action with peat-rustling activities. Getting rid of coal is a good idea though, it's not healthy for you.
In fact, there's a whole etiquette already in place. The waiter will bring a sample on warm toast soldiers, each person at the table will taste it and then attempt to guess the age of the butter. The person furthest away from the real age has to pay the bill.
But at 10000 EUR per kilogram, it's not for millennials.
