Love Hurts

[Clytie]

A lovestruck German has burned down his house after
candles he lit for his girlfriend sparked a fire. The
unnamed man had laid out hundreds of candles in the
shape of a heart carrying the words "You set my heart
on fire." The 18-year-old had hoped the gesture would
have impressed his girlfriend. Instead the heat was so
intense it melted the candle wax onto the floor where
it ignited. Ten firefighters tacked the resulting blaze for
an hour before getting it under control. No one was
hurt but emergency services said damage to the
property came to about £33,000.
