Shouldn't he be called Head Fire Dude then? I mean really watch manager could imply he's a Tag Heuer specialist?

Ok - maybe not revelvant when you don't live by the beach like I used to...

Try Head Fire Fighting Person (see politically correct) then you won't get asked to shove off....
 


I applied for the fire service but got found out at the second interview. My snooker just wasn't up to it.

Oi, you forgot "sleeping" ;)

Out of curiosity, do you guys really go to everything on blues apart from school visits and fetes?

We have to be able to justify it on every occasion, as there's been so much publicity in recent years about emergency vehicles being involved in collisions with the public.

I definitely wouldn't get away with flooring it to kitty stuck up a tree
:lolol:
 




A mate of mine who used to work for the East Sussex Fire Brigade told me the TRUTH about rescuing cats.

What happens is quite simple - and it's based upon the FACT that NO SKELETON OF A DEAD CAT HAS EVER BEEN FOUND STUCK UP A TREE.

I'll spare the more sensitive souls on NSC the full details and simply ask people to imagine how long a pussy cat will stay up a tree if a well directed stream of cold water is fired at full pressure in the general direction of the dear little creature.

Bugger that, LB, I think their theory is based on the scientific certainty that what goes up, must come down.

ie if the cat got itself up there, it will get itself back to earth again once it's hungry enough.

Based on personal experience of (1) an old workmate being distraught that her cat was stuck, calling 999 and being told the fire brigade wouldn't come out without the RSPCA, and the RSPCA saying they wouldn't come out until it had been up there at least 24 hours.

And (2) I was on duty one night near the Level when I got flagged down by a man deeply concerned for a mewing moggy up a nearby tree. He refused to leave me alone until I'd radioed every rescue service in the South East, so as a token gesture to shut him up, I enquired with our control room as to the possibility of the fire service attending (it was about 4am at the time).

Needless to say, the firemen, probably entirely reasonably, given the hour and the fact they were no doubt in bed, told the man exactly what he could do with said cat

:lolol:

PS being the ever helpful 3rd Emergency Service, we attempted to persuade it down by chucking sticks at it, unfortunately that seemed to make it climb higher for some reason

:p

You forgot to say that the Fire Brigade charge for non emergencies (ambulances charge for road traffic accidents) so if your cat is stuck up the tree, make sure you're insured.

May I just add that the sticks were thrown in an entirely non-threatening and fully risk-assessed manner.

So earlier on this year a massive gust of wind blew over the aerial on a house.

The road was sealed of by the fire brigade as they removed it and would the house owner have had to pay ?

BTW Bry, why are you always taking pictures at work ???
