That's right my friend. In Geneva we have chimney sweeps (Les Ramoneurs). For real ones dressed in black and wearing top hats. They even have a cute chimney sweep brush that they call a "herison" which translates to "hedgehog". They also tend to drive around in teeny-tiny vans. How bad ass is that?!We are bad, evil, delinquent fireplace owners who don't have it cleaned out properly by a chimney sweep every two years as required by our renter's insurance (or is every year that we are supposed to do this?). But in our defense, we haven't used our fireplace much these past few years.
However, I am feeling oddly law-abiding this year and plan to call our chimney sweep up this week and ask him to bring his surly self over to ours and run his hedgehog up my chimney.
Kinda makes you want to blush, doesn't it?
