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.

Can you smell something cooking?I have absolutely no right to be alive after this incident due to the vast quantity of alcohol consumed but...
Vodka nation night at Babylon in Bath a high class establishment where 'cocktails' are made by filling a large swing bin as follows-
Take crate of vodka and unscrew the caps without removing them from the crate to save time, do the same with a couple of crates of cheap cider and some cheeryade and empty the whole lot into the bin serve at 50p for a plastic cup full (1.5units) and mix with really crap music at ear bleeding volumes.
4 or 5 hours later I had consumed 47 units of alcohol (Barman was a friend of a friend and had decided to see how much we could handle) I didn't actually feel too drunk by the end of the night (always a bad sign) and was leaning on a handy wall talking to a friend until I noticed her coat was smoking (she had sat on an uplighter) then someone said "Whats that hot smell" and I noticed the skin of my arm was also smoking and had glued itself to another uplighter.
Next morning still so drunk I couldn't see and I had an assesed laboratory practical; i spent the day sitting down making other people do my work as I actually couldn't see.(I walked into a fume cupboard and nearly broke my nose)
Fun (I also tried to propose to a girl in the labs using a quickfit glass clamp instead of a ring)
