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?

...I stooped down to tie my shoelace next to our roaring campfire. Something made me look across to the base of the fire - where I saw a lighter. Just as I was about to ask who had put a lighter on the fire (and no, i didn't think to move away) the bugger exploded. With a quite impressive (so I'm told) noise/blast radius. Goodbye fringe and eyebrows.
PS. First post!
