Prepare. Act. Survive.
« on: October 09, 2009, 12:10:06 PM »
I see the NSW RFS already has relevant TV commercials made.

on youtube.  not bad at all.

also a recruitment advert.

there's a "making of the advert" video on youtube too somewhere.

Don't like their "What to do when the fire is approaching" advert - shows
curtains being drawn across glass. Current thinking is that window trimmings
should be removed as they are immediately flammable if the window is breached.
Without them, the room contents will be slower to catch alight, & allow
occupants to use the home for shelter a bit longer.
