How does one get a fire in a ice rink. When I was there last it was damn cold.. :?

[mattb]

Luckily it was only a bit of condensation from the roof mounted cooling units. It did look like a goer when we arrived though, no wonder someone called it in.

[E-ONE]

Any explantations as too why they havnt isolated the Fixed Alarm the cinemas at Mount Barker?  :lol:

[Scania_1]

The pager messages you are seeing are being sent to techs or something, not to the Mt Barker pagers. ( I run my own PDW)

Is it really necessary to respond 3 brigades / units to a tree down?

[medevac]

Is it really necessary to send fire service at all? SES job IMO

[24P]

Is it really necessary to send fire service at all? SES job IMO

Have to agree with you there, why have 2 SES units going as well as CFS? Bit of overkill there?

[medevac]

possibly a problem in the Mets databse i gues... (second alarm tree down, LOL)

[Stefan KIRKMOE]

Is it really such overkill? Maybe it's overkill that SES drove past the CFS responding to the call as there was no traffic hazard CFS were responding P2 sitting at a red light intersection (pump/rescue with crew of 4) when they drove priority 1 through the intersection with a crew of 2. Maybe it's not on overkill that CFS / SES went although Burnside were back in station as the tree (or more like twig) had been cleared from the road when a second SES unit continued to respond priority 1... at this stage CFS were back in station and on the way home from there! I'm starting to think that's a bit of overkill... Overkill it might be but atleast at the end of the day the public got a service and the job done. Interesting the Lewiston job seemed to be underkill as SES were called from Kapunda I believe with 5 other rescue resources closer with no CFS or MFS also responded.... I believe this "ownership" of calls you continue to talk about is childish and public safety should be the foremost consideration.

[24P]

Who's .....

[probie_boy]

hahahaha.

oh by the way has anyone considered the fact that it might have been a big tree? requires a couple of chainsaws and traffic control? but it probably wasn't. :|

[Heavy Rescue]

Bizarre behaviour, I would have thought that if the tree was already down then it isn't going anywhere and priority 2 would be fine.

I know the SES out here respond P2 to nearly all tree down jobs, why is it different for some units and not others. Having said that I know of a CFS brigade nearby that responded at least one truck priority one to a tree down job about a week or so ago, interestingly the SES were responding P2.

[PF_]

but P1 allows you to drive with lights and sirens, much more fun :-P

[probie_boy]

yeah, whats the point of going if you don't get to do the best bit?? don't tell me you still don't get a little tingle down your spine when you go to a job! :-D

[PF_]

Havent been on the truck with lights and sirens at all!

[probie_boy]

as if!

[MATTY]

You will find that P2 for SES means that there is no fire truck  going but still a lights and sirens job. P1 means a fire truck is responded too.

Matty

[PF_]

as if!

true, all I ever seem to rwck up are stop calls.

[Toast]

There is a certain local brigade around here that will turn out two appliances P1 to a tree down. Rather embarassing, but hey, the SOP's can be interpreted to allow it. Then again you can get what we had a few years back:

Respond Tree down, SE Freeway
Respond MVA SE Freeway, Car Vs. Tree
Respond MVA SE Freeway,  2 Car

All in the space of 5 mins.
