Got a massive shock todayI was having a really good day, until I nearly blew my face off in the oven!!!!  I put to bake rolls in for OH to have with his soup, went out to check on them, opened the door thought...."mmmmm I smell gas mustn't have lit the oven!!" pressed the ignition button and whoosh was engulfed with flames  I don't know why I did it  Anyway my hair and face caught fire it was awful  I have lost half of my fringe, half of the eyebrow on my left eye, half of my eyelashes and burnt my left eye and forehead.  (Oh and my jumper)I am very very lucky, My eye swelled up to start with, it is still stinging but I have no blisters or obvious burn (that I can see ) and my hair etc will grow back.  I looked a sight frazzelled and I just burst into tears, pure shock.I suppose I am lucky I opened the door as the whole oven would have blew up otherwise

Goodness BC, how awful, just pleased you are not badly injured, when you think of what could have happened.... Maybe you should get your eye looked at to make sure everything is ok... |

OMG!!! Shock is an understatement. I am pleased you lived to tell the tale and that you are ok. |

BC - you were so, so lucky. My daft (naive) friend at artschool, stuck a lighted match into the gas-fired hot air central heating boiler mechanism in our flat. She suffered quite bad burns to her arm and her face looked as if she's been lying in the sun in the sahara for a week. No laughing matter - I SO pleased you are OK, she was too - but very, very shaken  |

Thank you for your concern X Its a stupid thing to do!!! I think I'm still in shock and feeling sorry fo myself as I feel so lucky, even if I had ended up in the burns unit or god knows what else. |

Kepp talking (and laughing) about it BC. It's great for the shock, it'll disipate it for you. We want a picture of that singed fringe and eyebrow  |

.... you are one very lucky lady BC, that could have been so much worse.. I'm glad you weren't too badly injured but I really think you should get yourself checked out with your doc.. |

How dreadful; thank God you weren't injured seriously! Do think about having the eye looked at, please...... eyes worry me! |

I'd echo Dandysmom's advice above - so glad you're not badly hurt. |
