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.

Weused to play football with a tennis ball doused in lighter fluid and set aflame. Indoors, of course.
In the same house I once set the fat-filled grill pan on fire, looking back, putting it under the tap wasn't the best way to try and extinguish it. The gout of flame shot up the window, and a goodly way across the ceiling. The landlady insisted we had "stolen" the net curtains covering that window, but they had, literally "just vanished".
Obviously I still ate the fish fingers.
