Had the chimneys swept today - one was not too bad and the other had an enormous nest and twigs down it. Anyway, I've got kindling, firelighters, scrunched up newspapers, seasoned logs and long matches. I thought I'd start with the lounge fire but can't seem to get the thing going. Initially, it is alight thanks to the firelighters and the newspaper but then after that it just doesn't seem to get going. I had one of those magic log things and that is currently burning away quite professionally in the dining room along with some kindling. What am I doing wrong? Any tips welcome.
