Yes folks, it’s that time of year again, well and truly!  As my last post suggested, my flue needed a darn good seeing to and that took place today.

I consulted the Oracle (Google) and found a local man called Ben Pike.  He came to see me today, some 24 hours after contacting him, and set to work.  I knew I had a pipe full of creosote and he removed that with his scraper tool before giving it a good sweep and hoover.  And all for the Princely sum of £40!

Bargain!

I’ve not ruled out the replacement of my flue and definitely need the chimney pot replacing… that’ll happen next week :)

We’re now enjoying a ‘safe’ real fire and are now all set for the Winter.  Bring it on!
