Just had a lovely evening toasting marshmallows with the kids on a open fire pit on our brand new wooden deck.

DH wanted to just leave the fire burning while we went into the house to watch telly in a room that does not overlook the garden.

I wanted to put the fire out in case a spark jumped out and set the wood on fire.

Who is BU?

YABU: this was totally not risky and you are being a drama queen

YANBU: totally sensible to put the fire out

YANBU if you do not want to possible burn your house down and possibly kill yourself.

Put the fire out. And next time don’t put it in the decking.
