I never thought on a Monday afternoon that I would be helping as my brother removed the bottom plate from our fireplace to rescue a bird that fell down the chimney because the top blew off in a storm.
The bird had no grip and could not climb back up the chimney and we were trying to work out what to do.
After working out in the case of these particular screws in the bottom plate that the old righty tighti lefty Lucy thing was wrong, the plate came free and the bird managed to fly out the front door.
I was holding a blanket to make sure it did not fly into the rest of the house.
We think the bird was a minor bird.
We're going to put some chicken wire across the top of the chimney so it doesn't happen again.
