But it turns out you haven't?

I just had one with petrol. banghead

Thankfully I got away with a singed arm, but the way it crumpfed as the bonfire went up had me worried for my hair and ear. Thankfully I'd moved back a bit before lighting the box I intended to throw on to get it started, and did that at arms length, but the whole thing went up in one eek

As they used to say on Hill Street Blues Let's do it to them before they do it to us Let's be careful out there people.

That's the worst thing, I know. I just had a can of petrol to hand that won't get used up this year.

So; knowing that petrol is dangerous, as you obviously did, what exactly were the precautions that you had taken?
Kept just far enough away to ensure no more than a light singeing?
