not cf related - had to call fire brigade

[Guest guest]

This isn't cf related at all. I set my kitchen on fire this evening. I

was cooking (well cremated seems more appropriate now) and pulled the

griller out to take out the meat when flames came rushing out, obviously

from the fat in the tray, and went up the doors and hot plates. I

didn't know what to do, I knew not to put water on it, so I shoved it

back in the griller to try and stop the O2 getting to it. Then I called

000 and the fire engine came. It was nearly out by the time it got

here. The disconnected the gas so now we wont have any hot water

tomorrow so I made everyone have their shower tonight. I had to call

the insurance but of course it was after hours and they will call back

tomorrow. They said we needed a gas plumber (?) and then a new cooker.

Were hoping it wont take long as we cant cook at the moment, or boil the

kids their eggs(and soldiers) for breakfast. We need it to all happen

before Thursday as Eilish goes into the hsp. then. So fingers crossed

the insurance company will move quickly.

Liam was so funny, he's yelling get out of the house. Then he's running

around looking for his cat to make sure she is safely outside. Then he

stood on the porch waving down the ambulance. Eilish was at girl guides

so she missed all the excitement. The neighbours, miraculously all had

to water their lawns at that time. The kids next door all filled

through. So now no one will want me cooking in their kitchenLOL. At

least it doesn't smell smoky. Being very hot here we have the ducted

a/con on so they said just keep the fans running and it will suck it all

out, which it has. After the take of open fireplaces and candles I was

worried about Eilish's lungs.

Anyway enough for one day.

My gosh, that was a fright!! I am so glad all is well now. What a scary

experience. I am glad that the kids did well with it. It appears you did

as well losing it up sure did contain it -hehe. I will be hoping that it

gets repaired & the insurance will cover all that for you quickly .

Gosh, you should start a book on all these experiences. A life in the

day of a mom. Some of the little excitements in the daily routine-hahaha

Sending great thoughts to take with you to the hospital .

LOVE & HUGS, grandmomBEV

Dear ,

Wow how scary! sure am glad you're all ok including the cat. I have one

question. I know what eggs are but what are soldiers? I am assuming they aren't

the military type. I don't think you'd have them for breakfast. Well you might

have them OVER for breakfast but.................(yes I am being silly)

love,

M
