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.

TV Goldthe first round of this year's masterchef finals in london saw me rustle up a seafood cous cous salad / taboulé (depending on how far your michelin star is stuck up your arse) that even the hallitosis-ridden slaphead greg wallace admitted was 'good'.
feeling a bit peckish i also knocked up a little cheese on toast using a few slices of manchego to be drizzled with reduced balsamic on a slice of oven-griddled bread. with the camera crew looming, the oven's contents garnered the least of my thoughts as my tv-shy finger thrust itself on the end of a sharp knife.
with the delayed plaster now on my thoughts turned to the (more roast than) toast. once out the smoke alarms (in a kitchen?) reacted with an ear-splitting pitch causing derisions of all out pandemonium amongst the crew.
never one to be unduly ruffled, la torode's awe-inspiring interview opener "what's that?" could only be met with "seasoning". i'm not sure if he didn't understand, didn't hear or just couldn't believe what he was hearing so he asked again "what?" so i expanded "chef's seasoning"
set your videos for late feb.....
