I think it's only possible this year because we've been having sudden rain after a mostly hot and dry May, the previous couple of summers have had more than a few wild fires in the UK

How does that work in the UK from a regulatory perspective? I believe where I am it's outright illegal to light a fire outdoors in the summer without a permit and warning the relevant authorities, but maybe in the UK it's a weather advisory type deal where it depends on how dry it is at the time?

I could be wrong about either of those, I'm speaking entirely from memory.
