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.

Whoooooff!We regularly had bonfires in our back garden in Nottingham, mainly to clear out all the old crappy in our landlords garage. One night, with a few extra freinds aroud, the fire got a little large. Suddenely the conifer near the blaze (not that near) suddenly went up in a collosal roaring whooooofff! We were then showered by smow like ash.
Everyone scattered and the neighbours had called the fire brigade. By the time we knew about that (sirens) the fire was out. They weren't best pleased.
I spent the 2 weeks with a borrowed saw and cutters destroying the remains of the tree and disposing of it. The landlord never noticed. Come to think of it he didn't even notice his garage was now completely clear of all junk.
