Had been back from work about an hour odd when the lad comes flying into the house shouting that there was a fire at one of the neighbours house.I put my shoes on and ran out, flames and smoke was bellowing up from the back of one of the houses so took off and was banging on the doors(2 houses together) when a lad answered the door in a state with his dog going mad " is there anyone else in the house?" i said "No just me,It.s the shed, i don.t know what started it"
I looked and saw the shed totally in flames but noticed it was gonna spread down the fence towards the house.(I knew it wasn't as bad asi first feared by this stage so felt a bit brave as knew the fire engines were on the way. I said "Have you got a bucket, so i can keep it from spreading down the fence?" He pointed down to a hose on the floor" Use that!" I picked it up and shouted "Go on then!" .......waited ...waited..turned around and the lad is just looking at the fence in anticipation! "Well turn the f***ing thing on then!" i shouted and got to work with this piss poor trickle of water feeling proud of myself.
Soon, i heard banging, and the firemen came through the side gate, the lad took the thing out my hands and stole my glory! I was stood there like a nosy neighbour standing too close. Wheres the justice?
Oh, then got a bollocking off the missus and kids when i came out, for running in!
