Can any narrowboaters out there tell me whether it's okay for the stove to get little cracks/crackling in the glass like this? We literally only just got this stove repaired. Does it need to go back again?

Firebrick in “the roof” of my woodburner has cracked into three sections and the middle piece has dropped out. It’s 2°C today. I’d have just put a jumper on, but am looking after The Boy today, so for the first time this year I’ve had to put the heating on. Fire cement is arriving tomorrow. The Boy seems unconcerned.

It’s that time of year again where we spend half the evening getting the fire to

a) light
b) stay alight
c) keep it at optimum temp
d) avoid displacing the plate (happens almost every night here 🙈🤣)

This is fine unless you have uncooperative knees
