Good spot.... wonder if anyone else noticed at the time..... you'd hope so!

Yeah saw that, my theory is that it is mopping up and the guy getting into CFS gear is getting out of CFS gear.  :|

It's always east to speculate on a split second in time captured in a photograph. We don't know the circumstances or what happened next. A collegue might a brought his hat over who knows.. :-D

i'd never go near a burning buliding without a helmet on. Are these the retaineds that they are cutting from Gambier or are these the new city boys?

[Alan (Big Al)]

The full time firies won't be happening for a while yet.

[TillerMan]

Why is everyone so damn negative  :?

My first reaction to those photos is that is one PHAT Scania  :mrgreen:

Keep up the good work boys and work that engine.

Welllll.... S.O on the pump, driver without his helmet on the Hoseline, sum random bystander jumping into his CFS turnout gear...


Wish all the jobs ive been on went like that !!  :-D

[oz fire]

HA - easy to criticise - have seen many many photos of CFS, MFS, CFA, RFS etc crews not is appropriate PPE - from memory CFS even produced a heap of posters years ago where crews weren't in the correct PPE! Need to look in our own backyard and clean that up first!

As for the screw using the pump - what a good thing, was probally having a pump lesson from the firie :roll:

[strikeathird]

"Innnnn...Let....  Hmmmm... ?"



hehehe..


Yea, no one is perfect... Wonder if his arrival message was .. "Water on "

:-D

[oz fire]

I'd say the S.O was the chauffer that day so he got driver/pump duties, nothing wrong with that.  Good to see superiors are willing to take all  jobs.

[strikeathird]

Um no.. he wasn't the "Chauffer"  that day..


Its not like the CFS where the Captain goes " I wanna drive " and puts a F/F in the OIC seat while he gets his fix of red and blue lights !
