The flatleafed parley is definitely deceased after -10C The curly one
looked dead but has a little fresh shoot showing upwards now
That's nice, innit? ;-)

I'll be worrying more about keeping warm without central heating Like I
do.

My parsley collapsed in the cols and looked beyond redemption. However
as soon as the temperature wicked up so did the parsley, it is now
looking healthy and happy.

Same here.
My woodburner is not coping with - 10C I blamed the quality of my wood.
Woodman says it might be an idea to have my chimney swept since I haven't
done it since 2004..

I did it myself then and the last chimney sweep I asked came and said "you
are joking." It's not easy to sweep a chimney that has a woodburner in it.
It must be possible, though.

Does your chimney have a liner?
You could ask a local wood stove company if they can recommend a chimney sweep - they should be able to tell you one who is used to working with stoves.

But yes, you do need to get your chimney swept. Remember a stove burns much hotter than an open fire, with correspondingly greater risk of a chimney fire.

The last time my chimney was swept was when a wood pigeon came down it,
but I wouldn't recommend the method. :-)

I have rods for the drains, so I only need a brush, but I am uneasy
about the mess I'd probably make, and I don't have a high capacity
vacuum cleaner, just a Dyson.

How did you cope with the volume of soot?

I only burn smokeless and a few login the open fire at Xmas, and private
paper with details on, but I should get it done...
