This is a question 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.

So my biology teacher tells me to turn on the gas tap
which I do
she spends a minute trying to light the busen burner, only I've turned on the wrong tap

WHOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

she had to sit down for a while after that

or the time I thought the gas cooker lighter was a lightsaber and set fire to s roll of kitchen roll, which then set fire to a cupboard

or the time I accidently covered my desk in an amyl compound and set fire to it

or the time I set off a rocket in the back garden, only for it to topple over and shoot through the catflap into the kitchen

or the time I refilled a zippo with white spirits and lit it only to discover my hand was also covered in white spirits

or the time I was juggling lit firelights and decided to try heading one

or the time I stoked up the fire with methylated spirits, creating a 5 foot jet of flame

or the time I lit the propellant from an aerosol can, pointing it at a window, creating a marvellous starburst pattern, I did it so much the window cracked

or the time I threw an "empty" lighter into the back of the fire, FWOOOOOOMM! pity, I liked that rug

or the time I discovered that potin could be ignited, unfortunatley I had already drunk a fair bit and my judgement was impaired was that point, ah well, I din't need that much hair anyway

I could go on, but you get the idea, I like fire, fire likes me
