Heroes save elderly woman from fire
A BRAVE lorry driver and quick-thinking police officer rescued an elderly woman from her burning house this morning.
The off-duty female officer was passing the house on Dunkery Road, Mottingham, when she noticed smoke and flagged down the motorist.
He broke down the front door and carried the pensioner out, and an ambulance took her to Queen Mary's Hospital, in Sidcup, suffering from burns and smoke inhalation.
It is thought the wheelchair-bound grandmother, called Joan, lost two of her three cats in the fire, which broke out at around 5.30am.
Neighbours heaped praise on the lorry driver and police officer, and say their actions stopped the blaze from spreading along the row of terraces.
One said: "Without them that lady wouldn't have survived. Everyone thinks they're heroes.
"These houses would've gone and we wouldn't have known because we were asleep."
She said the pensioner, in her 70s, who suffers from heart problems, had tried to escape.
"She uses her zimmer frame at home and had dragged herself through the house which was full of smoke," said the neighbour.
Two fire engines, from Downham and Eltham, were called to the blaze, which destroyed half the ground floor.
Neighbouring smoke-logged homes were temporarily evacuated, with residents allowed back in at around 6.15am after the fire was extinguished.
The cause of the fire is not yet known and is under investigation. It is believed to have been accidental.
Did you see the fire? Do you know the courageous lorry driver and police officer? Add your comments below or call News Shopper on 01689 885717.

This old lady is probably a lifelong smoker who was careless with a cigarette, cigar or pipe as she cooked chips in an overheating pan full of boiling oil without taking the precaution of fitting smoke alarms in every room of the house.
Perhaps this incident will help her to kick the habit (and the chips).

Erastus
Can you stop belittling people in unfortunate events? They do not need it and we do not need to hear about your opinions on the matter. Haven't you ever wondering as you type such spiteful things that you are wrong?
I hope the lady will recover fully.

I hear what you say and I understand. Sorry if I offended you. But at the end of the day what is there else to do other than ask the person (I'd like to think politely) to stop expressing belittling opinions. It may offend others more than you know.

Unfortunately Malteaser, the truth is often harsh.
Many people of the elderly lady are smokers and become careless in their old age.
Perhaps she also accidentally kicked over an electric fire whilst attempting to escape the chip pan blaze?

In the case of Erastus, I don't see why everyone takes him so seriously.
And he may be right, it may have been a cigarette left to burn, or cooking gone wrong.
The important thing is that the woman made it out alive.

Erastus the fire happened at 5:30am so the report says so not sure an old lady would be cooking chips at that time of morning. Some of your comments do make me laugh but have you never stopped and thought about the people involved with this. The lady could have died and all you want to do it make fun of it. There is a time and a place - not sure this is either of them...
Please don't add a comment bad mouthing me as you say everyone has the right to their say.

It is a well-known fact that old people need less sleep than the young.
This old lady had probably been up since about 3.17am and by the time 5 o'clock came round she was getting rather peckish and fancied a plate of homemade chips.
Perhaps she rose early because she craved a cigarette, have you not thought of that, Lisa?

Lisa, I don't think Erastus is actually making fun of the situation. He put forward valid thoughts on what may have happened. He just didn't do it in a why that everyone will find appropriate.
I'm sure if someone came on and say "I wonder what caused the fire. Maybe it was a cigarette or she was cooking something", that would be okay. He just said it in a different way.

I bet [bold]Lin[/bold] and [bold]Bigsteve[/bold] both own 4x4s and clog up the streets of [bold]Bromley[/bold] with their gigantic gas guzzlers.
Still, you will be paying the congestion charge soon, won't you [bold]Bromley[/bold] residents?
Now, back to the story.
The fire was probably caused by a chain-smoking old lady who got up in the middle of the night because she craved nicotine and a plate of chips.
She dropped the cigarette down the side of her armchair and the chip pan on the stove caught fire because it was too hot.
As she had not fitted smoke alarms in the house she was not aware of the fire when she went upstairs to visit the lavatory.
On discovering blazing armchair and chip pan, she stumbled through the smoke and knocked over an electric fire which subsequently caused a third fire.

It is interesting to see the insults some people come out with.
Pink Kitten, I can't agree with banning people from smoking in their homes. If they want to run those risks, that's their choice. I do however support the idea of banning people from smoking in all public places.

As someone who does not frequent the news shopper website regularly, as it would appear some of you do, I must say this bickering or whatever you wish to call it is totally infantile. Unless you 'Erastus' have insight into the circumstances surrounding this story that havn't been put to press, your ignorance is outstanding, for which you must be praised! Should you be pulled out of a house fire..I do wonder if you would appreciate such mocking, or maybe you would consider it normal given your distorted image of humanity and what is considered appropriate in such times.

As a regular reader of the site, I am of the opinion that there would be far less "bickering" if more people accepted that other people have opinions and they have every right to express them. As it stands now, those who launch the attacks against Eratus and anyone they don't agree with believe themselves to be the only ones entitled to an opinion.

EVERYONE - don't rise to Erastus Piggotts comments, he does it on purpose to get this sort of reaction. Just ignore him, but unfortunatley he WON'T go away.

Who gives him the right to make assumptions about everything. Especially as he is named after a breed of dog - www.erastus.co.uk - very apropriate

Guys and Girls, please don't humour 'Piggott', thats the reason he (or she) makes these cringe-worthy statements - for the conflict. If Mr Bull, web editor is going to allow him to make such rash stereotypical and often derogatory statements then that is his choice. You, the readers choose to visit this site and by continuing to do so and commenting on comments made you are in a way endorsing those very comments. (?!) I don't doubt the number of comments made per story are used as a performance indicator of one sort or another. I suggest read the comment if you find it contradicts the rules then report it else just comment on the story or leave the site and go to another local news page. This is the last I'm going to comment Piggot's statements and yes, I have reported his posts.

Mike, allow me to comment on your comment about comments made. Are you not actually endorsing the comments yourself by commenting on said comments? Even a negative comment is a comment and cannot be taken as a non-comment. That's my comment anyway.

Of course Anna. I have the right to express my opinions, as do you, as does everyone else. Why would I want to take that way from anyone? It's a basic right.

You're one to talk. Take a look at some of your very abusive comments in various places. Atleast I can say, hand on heart, I'd say the same thing to your face. Well, maybe not yours, depends on if there were any of your children with sharp objects around.

How great it must be, to be so intuitive and know so much about what happened to a stranger. As her Daughter in Law, I can tell you that she was not "boiling oil" or "kicking over an electric fire" as she tried to escape death, and as to the matter of smoking in bed, how ridiculous. Also as a family we would like to give our immense thanks to the lorry driver, we have thanked the police officer in person. I too suffered a major house fire 8 years ago, we had to move out for 6 months, the trauma of such an event is catastophic, so we really feel that frivolous comments should not be made about our Mother by people who dont know the circumstances.

Wendy, I hope your mother-in-law makes a quick recovery. I hope also those people who have made these comments have the decency to apologise, but I fear not.
Well done to the lorry driver too. It's nice to read a story where, although the fire is a tragedy and must have been incredibly traumatic for your mother in law, it shows there are still some decent people around willing to help others. It's just a shame the thoughtless ones chose to comment on this website continually.
Best of luck to your family

All my best wishes to the elderly lady and the family of all parties evolved. It’s just a shame that we have people like Your Lord, Erastus Theobald Piggott that feel the need to write unconstructive comments, yes we are all entitled to our opinion however there is a time and a place. There is no need to be sarcastic, I have seen that the family of the lady involved have written on the site, surely your comments would upset them.
Well done to the lorry driver and quick speedy recovery to the elderly lady.

It has never been [bold]Your Lord's[/bold] intention to wind anyone up; I think you all do a better job of that than I ever could.
As for the comments, I have left more constructive comments about the story than any of my detractors who, let's face it, enjoy the prospect of having a go at [bold]Their Lord[/bold].
It amazes me that weeks and months go by and you are still coming out with the same boring retorts.
'Get a life', 'get a job' etc, etc, etc.
You bunch of frightful bores could not come out with anything original if your lives depended on it.
You hurl insults at anyone who puts their point across in a different way to your badly spelt garbage.
Not only are you unimaginative but many of you are thick as well.

Oh, how [bold]Your Lord[/bold] has suffered from sleepless nights after reading this terrible story.
I have been so worried about the little old lady who survived this horrific ball of flame with some very minor injuries.
I have prayed night and day for the three cats who were trapped inside the inferno but eventually rescued completely unharmed.
All my love goes out to this little old lady and her three cats as well as her family, friends, relatives and indeed anyone who knows her.
I will even start doing the Lottery because if I win I am going to give all the money to the little old lady and her moggies.
