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.

This was Ian Browns fault
When i was a 1st year student at the Uni of East Anglia, i accidently managed to burn my halls of residence thanks to me forgetting about the big vat of oil that I'd just put on the hob.
I thought it'd take about 20 minutes to deep fry a Tescos value cod, so i snuck into my room and listened to the new Ian Brown album i just bought (Unfinished Monkey Business, if you must know).
As i came out, the whole place was full of smoke, and 2 inept flatmates tried to use water fire extingishers to put it out. On an oil based fire.
Still, its one for the grandkids.
