From what i read on a vic pager site 5000 task completed 2000 outstanding and still reciveing 100 tasks per hour as we speak. Vic SES have 30 interstate teams heading in to help from SA and NSW.

And meanwhile, the CFA in the same area aren't called out.....

[Darren]

Come on Pip, leave the poor SES alone, if it wasn't for them we would have to attend to all these crappy jobs.

[Pipster]

And then I'd be cold in winter time, cos I would have to pay for fire wood I can get for free on the roads!!!

meanwhile it turns out to be a 3rd/4thish alarm grass fire....

[vsteve01]

meanwhile it turns out to be a 3rd/4thish alarm grass fire....

Since it should have been probably swanport groups in the first place, it may have not have got raised at all.  Palmer, Callington & Monarto would have been better choices rather than Nairne/ Brukunga.  All's good in hindsight.

Bad info from caller or bad info in what ever is used to dispatch which brigades.

Interesting that the operator knew it was on PANICANS HILL RD...and has ready access to oziexplorer/google maps...

Monarto should have been the primary brigade from the resulting maps.

Perhaps a  Monarto, Callington, Nairne, Murray Bridge, Jervios (BWC) response.

that doesnt sound too good

[Pipster]

And a stop call was issued not very much later...the Sparky had apparently got out of the roof, and was isolating power elsewhere, and hence didn't hear the home owner calling!!

When did they have a volvo?

[Darren]

They don't, its the west coast spare, live's out the back of PT Augusta station, obviously the Scania needs some work done.

[disturbed]

The Volvo has been in whyalla for the last few months as a spare they are keeping it there now in a shed. I think Pt Augusta's scania has some problems with its pump leaking

[Darren]

Ok it's moved again then, we have it on record at work as 5171.

[disturbed]

yeah been in whyalla for a while now as a spare and bak up cause whyalla closest bak up is Pt Augusta so another pump in whyalla is good its running as 5271

[Alan (Big Al)]

tires are a little bald i believe (amongst other things) and a new appliance on the way off the new build so i guess not worth putting new ones on.
