Have you ever started a fire?I went to sleep with candles burning - woke up to a circle of flame on the rug. Thought, "Tits. Better put the rug in the bath and turn the taps on." TIP: Don't put a burning rug into a fibre glass bath. I caused about £5000 of damage to the house and was coughing up smoky black phlegm for a few weeks. Can you beat that?

um. I set light to a load of cyclohexaneon the chemistry lab desk. which burnt all the varnish off. That was a bit scary. A while before that I shook up a load of sulphuric acid and something else (it was orange) in a test tube, with the stopper in, which exploded in my face, disolving my lab coat and (partially) my trousers. nb. don't spray sulphuric acid up your nose, it stings. I still got a C though (at A level).
