Lol i deserved that!
What i'm asking is why said appliance needed to be taken to gumeracha for testing of a pump. There is no mechanic or testing facilities, etc. in gumeracha, so why there? Its a 25km drive well outside of the brigades area, let alone group. There is an identical appliance in gum station so if it wasnt the pump on the appliance itself that needed testing but something requiring a pump, i.e. some sort of installation, then why use an appliance from so far away?

Can anyone shed any light on this???
Why not just have the SAFS? Run all the fire services under one roof and that way everything is more consistent and streamlined?
A SAAS volunteer has the same uniform, callsign, qualification (in some cases), ambulance and equipment as the paid staff. They get sent into paid station areas and vice versa. It doesn't seem that hard?
Any reason it took so long to figure out how to fight it ?
