Is anybody here more exp on this? I had a fire start in the loft room of our house, it was a small Delong* Blueflame Callargas heater. 12kg Butane they take and they have an open flame which caught fire to a blanket I dragged over which was my stupid fault. The problem was it would not die and the problem grew,I burnt up my hands then I tried suffercating it with blankets that just c\ught more fire ....... WHICH would have BEEN OK WITH A FIRE BLANKET (I advise everyone to learn from me and buy a few sets)
I wont go into more detail but the bed caught and its lether and I was at a point of purely risking my life moleather bed was black in smoke, I opened a window to let out smoke and got out I managed to get down and 999, Once
butane gas was mentioned I was told to get out.....
,,,,,,, the feeling of watching your room go up and be powerless over ul.was aweful.

I was lucky they came in 5 minutes. The whole loft is gone the midflooor is midway but had they of taken 15 minutes the damage would be neighbours lofts and our midfloor gone.and
2 days before a holiday too!!!!!!!!!!!!! We were advised to get it boarded and enjoy. Right so lets fast forward 2 weeks later we get back into the uk.
Its been about 3-5 days now insurance came out and electrictions.
Right the problem is we've no internet (oh no) and I require it for working, banking and sorting out this fire. I bought a laptop on holiday while using their net (UK SITE I bought it from). I am on it now. We are living at my grandads now and I wified BT WIFI FOM but poor signal and HIT AND MISS if it worked but I paid a fiver. I was thinking of cancelling my adsl and going for VIRGIN MEDIA as we can now get 100mb upto FIBRE!! I can use their 3g dongle??? while I wait or here at grandads. I have lost my HTC DESIRE HD IN THE FIRE I am going for a SIII contract .
Ok. We have bigger problems than no net just that its sweet for help, etc. The past 3 days weve been cleaning the room up
