Our landlord told us we needed to provide him with une attestation de ramonage for his and our home insuramce.
So I called Luberon Ramonage and they came round to sweep la cheminée.

It wasn’t Dick Van Dyke who turned up but a young man with a big hoover.

He did a bit of hoovering and then went outside and sent a drone up to have a look at the roof and the chimney pot.
He then said the chimney hadn’t been too dirty and issued the certificate.

Good job too as it is -4 outside and having a fire is essential.

As he left I shook his hand in case good luck does indeed rub off*
