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.

oh andwhen my older brother was at uni in ireland (coleraine), he went out for the night with his g/f. coming back to his lovely house on the beachfront, he thought he was seeing things. or rather not seeing things, given that the house had just disappeared.
closer inspection revealed a black, smoking wreck that looked a lot better blended into the night.
his housemate had gotten completely stoned and had decided that the fire would look a lot better out of the fireplace and in the middle of the floor. so he had picked it up and moved it. or to be more accurate, picked up various flaming pieces of wood which had promptly ignited the entire house. he had then legged it.
my brother was reasonably forgiving, until he realised the twunt had never bothered to go in to sign the tenancy agreement and so the landlord was holding him responsible for the damage...
