Burning rope

He climbed upon a burning rope, to escape the fire below...

The gasket on our stove has gone! It then fell into the fire and burned in a very 'unburny' way. What's it made of do we think?

Now we need a trip to the stove shop to have it fixed!! Or get some gasket and cement and do it myself?

It has to be done, because it still feels like Winter at night.
