do you have a fire eggstinguisher?

watching an episode of bottom and they had one to put out the christmas pudding!

1.01 they brought home from the pub

Joking aside, I've always wondered why no one's attempted to push this idea.

I haven't got one and I don't know anyone who has.

I do remember someone having a small one in his car back in the 80s (it was a company car)

I mentioned this once to a fire-safety person who visited my workplace about 12 years ago.

He laughed and said it's hard enough to get people to fork out a fiver for a smoke alarm.

Even so, I reckon with the right marketing and advertising campaign, you could sell them to the domestic market

We've just bought 2 A few weeks ago. Bought one for the shop downstairs, and thought id just as well get a small one for the flat we live in upstairs. The thought of having a fire start and not being able to do something about it quickly is quite scary when you think about it.
There was a fire in a flat close by a few years ago, early one sunday morning. It took the fire brigade about 15-20 mins to turn up, which is normal I suppose nowadays with fewer retained full- time firemen

I have a little one.

I also have a fire extinguisher .

If they are powder, flip it every so often and give it a tap and a shake, the powder can settle.

theyre on 20-30 notes on amazon. has to be worth that to not get your house burnt to the ground?

i know fires are very rare, i had one once when i set the cooker on fire.
had summat cooking on the grill, phone went...i shut the doors to stop the cat getting out cos he was due to go to the vets and i didnt want him going awol. forgot i was cooking summat, went in later and the kitchen was full of smoke. pulled out the grill and the flames nearly burnt my face off! hey, i was only young. i had the commonsense of a donut.

never had any fire related incidents since, but 30 notes its a no-brainer shirley. weird we never think about it.
