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.

Paper + Lighter + Deodrant = Fun!
Until you realise that you put the paper on the carpet and it's burned straight through. It took a full half-hour to convince my parents the smell was coming from outside. The large burn area? Blamed it on the cat once I'd vigourously scrubbed the scorch-mark off with various cleaners. Ajax too, for some reason.
Who says 13-year-olds can be sensible? Family aren't letting me live it down at all. Wouldn't mind so much if they actually made decent jokes about it. *sniff*
