Fire!We were all in my aunt's kitchen at the back of her huge rambling Victorian house. I was only small and had wandered off to go to the loo, but given up after finding the hall full of smoke. "That was quick," my mum said after a few minutes. "Yes - it's all smoky," I replied.
I've never seen adults move so fast.
So, like my cousin who'd managed to set fire to the roof, tell us your fire stories.

WellWhen i was a child, around 7 or 8 i imagine, there was a popular early morning show, presented by the (not so) lovely Cheryl Baker.
Cue me, waking up rediculously early on sat morning, and watching cheryl baker make cripsy cakes, and melting the chocolate in the microwave in a plastic tub.
Being the innoncent young un i was, i presumed that microwave and cooker are sort of the same, and decided to put a plastic vitalite tub on the cooker.
then it set on fire.
then my sister came downstairs.
and started screaming.
which woke my mother up and she came down and put a wet towel over it. phew,
punishment?
made to clean the cooker and 6 weeks grounding.
but i did manage to get a blue peter badge in those 6 weeks. woooo.
no apologies for anything,
EDIT : oops forgot to say i leave the oven on almost everyweekend with food in it, when im pissed and fall asleep. our mam goes beserk!
