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.

Basic TrainingI work for teh good ol' NHS,at Frenchay. As part of our mandatory training we got told some classy stories by firemen. My favourite was a bearded bloke on oxygen, who also happened to be a smoker. Naturally its banned to smoke on wards, but this bloke gives it a go anyway. However, due to him being on oxygen all the oxygen molecules have soaked into his beard.
Which promptly ignites when he sparks up, removing his eyebrows and most of the skin from his face, though he didn't have to go far to the burns unit...
