Rural fire brigades are better...

[PF_]

Rural fire brigades are better, they provide services to the community even when theyre pagers go off twice a year.  They have lots of dedication but one thing they dont need is more dedication.  All rural brigades hsould be kitted out to a minimum standard.  A shed and a few spiders is all that is needed.  Maybe a few more spiders with an excess of 3 calls a year.  Boxes to stuff in PPE gear, half empty can of mortein, door that takes 20minutes to open and lights that dont work.  This is what a rural station should be like.  And with all this they still operate to the same standard than urban brigades with their fancy lights, lockers, kitchens gyms and not many spiders.

Mate - every station is SA deserves at least one full carton of pale (cold) - no one should have that right removed, rural or urban!

reminds me of a Svhweppes lemonade ad many years ago.  The MFS crew ran out of water ata  church fire so someone ran and grabed a couple of boxes of Schweppes Lemonade and they all shook up the can and extinguised the fire with that.
