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.

He was the god of head fire
I was camping with 3 friends in some woods not too far from my home one evening, all was going well much cider drunk etc. I was sitting outside the tent because my mate didn't want hot rock burns in his flysheet, which is perfectly understandable when the very same chum decided he was going to light the meths burner cooker thing INSIDE the tent. DOH! queue him blowing on the flame whilst it was alight, the meths exploding around him inside this tent and engulfing his head in flames!! It was hilarious as he had no eyebrows or fringe.
I then continued to taunt him for the rest of the night by spraying large amounts of aerosol into a 2 litre plastic bottle, lighting the fumes and squeezing the bottle to make large plumes of fire squirt out of the top. In his face.
Ah to be young again.....
