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.

dr.h: i'm sure i remember reading about that in the Local Times. or something similar anyway. yay - another Herefordian.
so this isn't entirely pointless - a few years ago my uncle managed to blow up his caravan Brainiac-style.
he couldn't get the gas grill to light, so he toddled off to get some matches from the house, leaving the gas on and filling up the caravan until it was ignited by the storage heater.
the bits went everywhere.
the caravan was crappy anyway.
