I've done two - a small one  so that you can see the whole image

                              "  I thought you had the sweep in last week, tomkin!"

            No! I had the sweep in, 8th September for the front fireplace. Today he did the

     fireplace in the back room The front fire place is a Rayburn room heater

     that burns Anthracite, the back fireplace is an open fire which is a Dunsley SuperFlue.

     This fireplace is rarely used but the bl**dy Jackdaws keep dropping loads of sticks down

      the chimney to build nests. If I burn a bit of paper the room rapidly fills with smoke,

       setting off mi' smoke alarm. The Rayburn runs mi' central heating

 Somebody explain to me, in simple terms, why we do large ones?

Thanks again tomkin. I can't even begin to imagine how long these take and really appreciate it.

Out of interest, did John George mention where he was when the 1901 census was taken? :-)

Thank you very much Gadget, they are really, really good. I love the way they seem more real when the photos are cleaned up.
