BEETLING and CHIMNEY are excellent, Mike -- well done! (I missed CHIMNEY, as it turns out; I only had CHIMES.) But I'm a bit surprised that you didn't append the S for the even better CHIMNEYS.
I had an S in brackets written down after CHIMNEY and wondered if it was -IES, but with only 30s, decided to play it safe. Such is life...
Yes, good wordwork from Mike.
