AYLESBURY firefighters were called to a rather unusual incident in Pitstone last night (Monday).
At 9.30pm they attended to a bungalow in Yardley Avenue, after it occupiers- an elderly couple- began smelling smoke.

Firefighters discovered the source of the smell was coming from the kitchen.

A cigarette had been put out in the sink and had charred the handle of a plastic knife.
