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.

Smoking fags really can kill you...My mate always used to sneak crafty fags in the machine room of a very, very large IT company. Never any trouble with this until the day he didn't stub a fag out fully and it set light to the wastepaper bin. Being a bit thick, he decided to stamp the fire out by putting his foot in the bin.
Cue much hilarity around the room as he starts hopping around with a flaming bin on his foot, neither able to put out the flames or extract his foot from the burning recepticle.
And then as one, everybody suddenly remembered that they were in a multi-million pound computer room with a Halon fire system - 30 panicky seconds to get out before a painful and difficult to explain death...
