Hi Dodge.
We had a great holiday thanks toured parts of Ireland.
I have tried peat or turf as we know it. Good black or stone turf will provide a dull to bright red heat but it burns very fast under blast.What I use it mostly for is lighting my forge there is a lot of smoke out of it also.The best place for it is in a range or stove.What neck of the woods are you in?

If you have a drill with very slow speed you could try a new masonry bit and keep it well oiled I have had good susses with this method.
Drill the pilot hole with the same type of bit also.

Congratulations to ye both And your family
