	KENTISH FIRE
		Kentish Fire Rapturous applause, or three times three and one more.
		The expression originated with Lord Winchelsea, who proposed the health of the Earl of Roden, on August 15th, 1834, and added, "Let it be given with the `Kentish Fire.' " In proposing another toast he asked permission to bring his "Kentish Artillery" again into action.
		Chambers, in his Encyclopædia, says it arose from the protracted cheers given in Kent to the No-Popery orators in 1828-1829.

		Kentish Councilors have treated a substantial proportion of Lorinna residents with contempt, by refusing to enter into a meaningful dialogue with residents.
		Kentish councilors and staff have lied to, misled and been rude to Lorinna residents in an effort to ensure that residents are shut out of any meaningful input into the decision making process which will severely impact upon their economic, health and lifestyle interests.
		Kentish Council stated in their document (Kentish Council Community News June 2000) that the Lorinna road would be closed if a new road were built.

		In 1911, a serious fire destroyed the wooden armory and William R. Walker and Sons, the prestigious firm that built the 1893 Town Hall, was engaged to erect the new building.
		Without doubt, two ancient cannon were owned by the Kentish Artillery at the time as Walker built a niche on each side of the doorway to house the cannon and also charged a fee of $2.50 for "carting the cannon" to the new building.
		The Kentish Artillery building was being used by the Warwick Boy's Club at the time and Howard J. Gardner, an employee of the Club, recalls the incident.

		Also in North London, FBU members were summoned to a death crash scene by police because Green Goddess crews "couldn't cope." Soldiers had tried in vain to cut a woman from the wreckage of a red Alfa Romeo after it came off the road and crashed into a tree on Hampstead Heath.
		They responded after a member of the public, who had spotted a road accident, raced to the fire station and reported the elderly driver was trapped.

	From One Strike to Another
		We understand that single parents say the current shift system enables them to do the two jobs of taking care of a family and of taking a full part in the fire service because they can regularly be with their children for four days running.
		The FBU stressed the importance of the fire service being independent of the police and said that if it was not, it would impact on the ability to recruit Black and ethnic minority staff.
		The independence of the fire service is what enables fire workers to do their job in the way it should and must be done, free of political manipulation.

	Food-Drying Kilns in Lambeth (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The oast house is usually associated with Kent, and certainly with the countryside, so that it comes as a visual surprise to find two of the typical conical roofs, but without their traditional cowls and vanes, surmounting brick-built kilns in the heart of Lambeth.
		One of the hazards of this drying process was that the fat would frequently drip into the fire and ignite, so that before long the fire was out of control.
		Apparently it was a commonplace occurrence to call the fire brigade to douse the fire as often as once or twice a month.

		Robert Pahre suggests that " 'Kentish town' is a reference to Canterbury, seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury." Canterbury has been a city of pilgrimage since Thomas à Beckett was killed there in the 11th century.
		These pilgrims don't have to be fed anymore, since they are dead: "no bodies to feed" might refer to the fact that in the middle ages pilgrims received free meals in the monastries during their stay and a place to sleep.
		As for the information on the sun or fire worshiping, I found that under the definition of Magus in an Arabic dictionary called 'Al Munjid' which is considered the bible of Arabic language.

		Kentish Fire is a delightful old custom which has been handed down to the inhabitants of this district from the dim and distant past.
		They knew that blowing the fire was one way of bringing it to life, but they found it difficult to blow on the fire and tell a tale at the same time.
		Consequently the simple rhythm associated with Kentish Fire was used in applauding each tale.

		In Coronation year, Betty and Percy Harlency and their daughter April abandon the slog of running a Streatham gin palace, and move to a Kentish village to take over the Copper Kettle Tearoom, a charming but financially ruinous establishment.
		April meets the ginger pig-tailed and fiery Ruby; their friendship is instantly sealed when they burn loo roll together, in one of those curious destructive childhood rites.
		As a result, the novel has a somewhat flat conclusion, but the main body of it is a glorious, heady plunge into childhood.
