I am so glad your OK Tasha and that the dog walker was eagle eyed, had I known though that there was to be imminent Firemen around I would have stuck around a little longer...

Daphne Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Just read this - what a terrible thing to have happened. Perhaps a cowl like S-S suggested might help in the future? I hope you are all OK; although shaken I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Glad that you're all ok. We had a chimney fire when I was a teenager. I had just had my room decorated and a new carpet. I went upstairs after tea to find my skirting board and new carpet on fire. The fire brigade said that it had probably been smouldering for ages. It was in a sealed off chimney running alongside the active one. Very scarey, especially for it to happen twice in such a short space of time. Good thing that the dog walker came by.

Space Chick Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 What a shock Tasha I'm so glad you are all OK. Hope theres not too much damage, and that you will be able to get any insurance claim sorted quickly On the plus side, hunky firemen Although I hope you didn't make an idiot of yourself like I did when we had a fire about 11 years ago, we had a lot of smoke, and I started crying to a fireman asking if Henry (the dog) would be OK with smoke inhalation as he has smaller lungs The fireman pointed out that he had been nearer the ground where the air would have been better Henry was only 4 then, he's 15 now and has suffered no ill effects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky1 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Hi Tash sorry to read about your chimney fire. I hope youre all ok. We have an open fire here and so we are always wary of the possibility. A distant relative of mine had a chimney fire some weeks ago. He lives in a new house (1 or 2 years old) and the fireman showed him an area behind the flue that had not been constructed properly. This resulted in it filling with soot and the accompanying risk of fire. Sorry the above is a little wooly - if it is of any interest to you, pm me and I'll get it chapter and verse.

theherd123 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 So glad you are all ok. Dog walkers are such fab people! (Not saying that as I'm a dog walker BTW!) Trifle for tea and visiting firemen are always a plus in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 Tasha, tell me that you don't have a chip pan!!! goodness no! not with what I see at work on our training DVDs I got to work this morning and the car park barrier screen said 'passcard abuse!' which means I had done something to get my pass revoked it was kind of the last straw as I have been working so hard and driving so many miles recently and with all the stresses at home with electrical problems, broken stopcocks, broken taps, no heating or hot water I am ashamed to say I burst in to tears! Turns out it was an error on the barrier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
