No. No fires.
I haven't had a fire in a campground in years, and I've never built a fire when wild camping.
In many parts of the world, they are banned. As Rowan said, in Australia, there are significant portions of summer when there's a total fire ban on. And I'm sure some of the fire prone areas of North America and Europe also have fire bans.
And I
usually use a public toilet of some sort.
