A toddler, sitting on a hard chair at a table, slipped off sideways and caught the tray loaded with a scalding hot freshly drawn pot of tea
She fell to the floor and the tea went all over her Everyone stood transfixed, the child was eerily quiet (shock?) and I stuck my oar in and shouted "Quickly, get her in the loo and under the cold tap!" So they rushed off to the loo and I told the (shocked) girls behind the counter to call firstly an ambulance, and secondly their HO to report the accident. The ambos came, luckily the child was just a little bit blistered down one side of her tum, and they didn't take her to hospital. I think the fact she had long sleeves etc (it's a cloudy day here) saved her from worse 
They thanked me afterwards for jumping in and knowing what to do, but I just went into autopilot really
After they'd gone I felt quite sick and my heart was going like the clappers. I think she was very lucky, that could have been soooo much worse!
