Got smoke alarms in every room. Mains powered with battery back up. Linked.

Plus various types fire extinguishers.

Even do the odd fire drill. But now it is mentioned not done that since the kids moved out.

Got two smoke alarms fitted by the firebrigade. Randomly knocked on the door one day and were fitting them in the area. Probably have cameras/listening devices fitted inside. Feel sorry to who ever listens to my snoring and watches me walk naked.
