    Re: Quiet Around Here

    Found they hadn't lined the chimney (woodburner), big pile of soot on top of the register plate was smouldering away rather too well .....hotter....and hotter....and hotter...... worried about the beams etc. catching. Ripped the flue out of the register plate and sorted it out. Few bucketfulls of soot were well alight :w00t:. Thank god I wasn't pissed at the time!

    Next job - chimney liner.

    Not content with taking the Missus to Lidl for our wedding anniversary, I (nearly) set fire to the new house tonight. Just finished clearing up the mess and plonked her in the bath to rinse off the soot.

    Anyone got some floor cloths and a bucket of cleaner + a few spare hours????
    not good, how did you put it out?

    To all woodburner and fire place owners It's worth knowing that unless you have a receipt or a certificate to say it's been cleaned by a professional sweep you MAY NOT be insured. Check the small print on your policy.

    Or given the recent anniversary, old passions could have been re-ignited.
