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.

Early childhood traumaMy sister and I were watching cartoons on Sunday morning (instead of going to church I dunno). It was the Bugs bunny one with the big hairy monster and Bugs is giving the monster a permanent with dynamite, at the moment the monster's head blew up, so did our T.V. set. We could see the flames inside the cabinet, Dad,swearing profusely, carried it out into the front lawn,it didn't really flame too much and I think it just went out by itself. Other than the shock I don't remember being too afraid at the time, and I was probably more sad at having no T.V. for a while than anything.
