Fellow Sheffielders, check out this article in the Sheffield Star:
Warning over chip pan fires
FIGURES released today confirmed Barnsley as the chip pan capital of Britain – prompting a new warning from worried firefighters.
<snip>
But the statistics carry with them danger, warn fire chiefs who say unfortunately Barnsley is also the chip pan fire capital of the country.
<snip>
"We have toured the area with our safety display showing people the true horror of what happens when a chip pan ignites.
"We have asked people if they must cook chips to invest in a thermostatically controlled deep fat fryer, but still people in Barnsley cling to tradition and use chip pans.

And what was I saying to Bookey back in October last year?
