They gave us the bottle and stickers and also some leaflets and a DVD about safety at home. they asked us to mention the scheme to any body we knew.
They also told us they will fit, for free, a smoke alarm with a ten year battery life if they visit a premise without one.
I am glad your alarm was a false one though jaysay, I suspect you would have problems getting out quickly so a smoke alarm would give you the extra seconds you need.

Spot on Gremlin when it first went of I was well asleep knocking the zz out, and it was a bit disconcerting, to say the least. I'd never heard of this Message in a bottle before but its certainly a great idea and I'm just about to sort it out so its up and running, but if other people are interested I'm sure the fire brigade would point people in the right direction
