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.

Note:
if you are a somewhat hairy bloke (like me) DO NOT light the hairs on your leg with a match in a moment of idleness as it spreads like a grass fire with frightening speed. Near bollock death experience.
I saw a psychiatric patient at the hospital I work at burn himself to death once. He used petrol. Bloke in his twenties. Poor bastard. Requiescant in Pace.
