    Last time I called them was when I'd made a suicide attempt in July this year.

    Two fire engines have been out to my hall 3 times in as many weeks. They automatically come if smoke alarms go off. The smoke alarms are very sensitive. The firemen dont like us.

    The last time I physically called myself was a few years ago when one of the french windows in our conservatory decided to sponatinoulsy shatter - of course we didn't know it had done it by itself at the time and thought there was someone in the back garden throwing bricks at it.

    The policeman they sent round was too scared to go to the end of the garden to check if someone was there or not.

    A couple of weeks ago though my boyfriend called the police out to a break in at the factory next door to his - the security guard had called out the wrong factory owners - anyway the police came and brought a dog but couldn't do much as we didn't have a key.

    Back in '97, for a prank. I called the police emergency and told them the aliens were landing in my schoolyard... :rolleyes:
    For a serious reason, I never had to. Though I almost did once, last summer, when my dad wasn't feeling at all well while driving.

    I've never phoned emergency services but the last time someone in my house did was earlier this year cos my dad set fire to a tree in the back garden whilst attempting to have a bonfire :rolleyes:

    my mother still doesn't know about it :p

    Mr Roll, you need not get angry. I sent off a letter of apology the following day to the North Wales NHS Trust. I actually got a reply too, letting me off this time. I've learnt my lesson.

    When my sisters house got broken into. Had to run over to her neighbours to phone for the police. Luckily nothing was really taken as we must have disturbed them when we were trying to get in the house, though they had plenty of time poking through her underwear draw which disgusted her. :-/

    A number of times within the last couple of years because I seem to have a strange habit of calling them in my pocket.
    Damn keyguard doesn't stop 999 calls.
