Monks and priests had to teach kids reading and writing during the Tourkish command (for 400 years, from 1400 until 1800 a.C.), because the Tourkish closed the schools and the churches trying to change the Greeks from Orthodox to Muslims. The punishment was death. That's why they had to hide.antigonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17788936258263664434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629385498811658729.post-47308083510142163262009-02-11T22:15:00.000+01:002009-02-11T22:15:00.000+01:00Well spotted, Catherine.

I guess they cannot fly as Mary Poppins! <BR/><BR/>Before I moved to a smaller flat I had 4 chimneys, used one a few times per year (Xmas etc.), but insurance forces you to have them all swept once per year - costing a fortune! Now I have just one! But some days it's really nice to have it!<BR/><BR/>(I conclude from your pics that you don't live on the first floor.)PeterParishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09694538476960957295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629385498811658729.post-21872249701588121082009-02-11T17:36:00.000+01:002009-02-11T17:36:00.000+01:00I loved them when I was a child and they were dres...I loved them when I was a child and they were dressed in black in a kind of uniform with a black hat.Gattinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06636525277807715146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629385498811658729.post-87168878994820494362009-02-11T16:37:00.000+01:002009-02-11T16:37:00.000+01:00Ici les ramoneurs portent souvent le costume noir ...Ici les ramoneurs portent souvent le costume noir redingote et le chapeau comme dans Mary Poppins!!<BR/>La 1ere fois qu'ils avaient sonne a ma porte, j'avais eu peur de ces deguisés et je ne leur avais pas ouvert!!!Marie-Noyalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08929839775594103524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629385498811658729.post-48667726518779053472009-02-11T15:58:00.000+01:002009-02-11T15:58:00.000+01:00D'star has quite a few pics of people on the chimn...D'star has quite a few pics of people on the chimneys - but nowhere near as high up.<BR/><BR/>My problem was one of my weird migraines.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629385498811658729.post-69842605899391559892009-02-11T10:10:00.000+01:002009-02-11T10:10:00.000+01:00Ouais, sale temps pour les hérissons!Ouais, sale temps pour les hérissons!alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17178479347468393057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629385498811658729.post-71812659507146574452009-02-11T09:05:00.000+01:002009-02-11T09:05:00.000+01:00You got good pics of the chimneysweep at work!
