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.

wrong bonfire nighti was 15. my parents went on holiday leaving me on my own, with a few check ups from my nan. i decided to have a party, word spread, and loads of pissed teenagers turned up. i remember gin and poppers. loads of people were sitting in my parents conservatory and we could see a bunch of people pissing about in the garden. 2 of them came in and asked me if i had any wood...i pointed them in the direction of the shed. 10 minutes later they came back and asked if i had any petrol...not thinking anything untoward i sent them back to the shed. a few minutes later a mighty fireball lit up the summer night sky, an unidentified person dousing their hair, my mums favourite tree on fire, and the lawn ablaze. The fire brigade were called, and i got well bollocked.
