What a wonderfully whacky photo!

It reminds me of the tradition of cleaning the chimney at Christmas by tying a rope round the Christmas tree and pulling it down the chimney. Now that must have been messy...

There are various ways up here in North Yorkshire - stick an old wellie up the chimney and set fire to it; tie a big bunch of holly on a rope, stick the holly on the chimney pot and pull it down; in other words- try not to have to pay to have the chimney swept!
