After heading off to the world RCR championships representing Australia, Laura SES took out first place in the rapid extrication section of the competition. Not too bad for the only volunteer crew in the competition...

Well done lads.

Not as yet... I scored that tidbit from the Advertiser. It was a tiny article about 10 pages in. Obviously abusing emergency services is more important than praising them in the media  :|

Will update as soon as I have more details.
