"A Man Put Out A Blaze In His Own Kitchen"

Is this expressing surprise he was actually capable of it ? That made me larf.

I've put out a fair few fires in my own kitchen with nowt more than a soggy tea towel and never made the 10 o' clock spot. Those old infomercials were very handy for educating the plebs back in the day.

Perhaps they stopped em because the general public were doing the Fire Brigade for them. *flash of realisation after typing that*...errr...when did the name change ??

Showing my age again :(

Oh *cringe*..."doing the Fire Brigade for them" should have read "doing the Fire Brigades WORK for them".

Paging Dr Freud....

That one about Coryton is quite a big deal, it's a major refinery and was once Mobils' pride and joy. Done design work on that me.

Given most 'cooking in the kitchen' fires start after a skinful, perhaps!

"That one about Coryton is quite a big deal..."

Indeed, and it doesn't seem to have attracted much attention, does it?
