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.

CarrieA few years ago I actually managed to start multiple fires in the same flat on the same night.
I got home pissed and helped myself to some of my flatmate's food which I put on the hob. Then I went for a quick "lie down" on the bed, and lit a reefer. I woke up later with my duvet on fire, so I stamped it out and threw it out the window, then went back to sleep.
When my flatmate came home later that night he found his pan on fire on the hob, a duvet burning in the back garden, and me asleep like a fat glowing sacrifice, on top of a mattress that had just started to catch fire from the still-lit reefer. My other flatmate had slept through the entire episode, and the next day I emerged from my room to find him banging on the smoke alarm with a broom and shouting obscenities.
His mum came to collect him the next day and he moved out, the pussy.
