Well its either One Tree hill or Salisbury, for such a low priority job, id say one tree hill with Elizabeth would be the best response.Bit of a longish drive for OTH being at the bottom of the hills face, going by what ive seen on the pager site Salisbury CFS seems to do responses into that area, anyway obviously a fill in upstairs last night?
Salisbury MFS looked like it had been called to a RCR at Brahma Lodge at the time.
Is it just me or did Region 1 people miss out on the notification for the Royal Show, no one in my group was notified.Maybe they're trying to tell you something?
So which side of the ratio are you from?
If you think this site is bad, holy filtered stay away from brigades
Mind you, the ratio of morons to knowledgeable people on this site is about 10000:1.
Quite a few of our members have come from other brigades and actually enquired first whether there would be a place in the brigade for them if they moved into the area.
how many here have chosen their new house on the location of the CFS station

07:00:15 19-08-08 There is a Fire call and two personnel can not take truck need more thank you MFS Pt Augusta Response
Hmmm, 12 minutes and only two people at the station and no default brigade responded, surely this is unacceptable.
In one of the other threads I thought someone said that the retained stations need to default just the same as the CFS do - it appears as though they don't think so.
I wonder if the UFU will crack the filtered at the MFS and start writing reports like they did with a certain CFS brigade that struggled to get out the door.
Burnside's area has remained reletively unchanged for years. All that can be developed, has been developed. There still exists a large (protected by national park status) rural risk in our area, and i think there will always be a need for CFS presence in the area.Thats what i was getting at, they might still be there but not in the capacity they are now? I.e they might end up becoming rural only?
"If you look on the pager site Salisbury CFS couldn't turn out anyway"Good point, none of those pages i can see say "we cant turn out". You area brilliant pumprescue, at reading something into something thats not there.
How do you know they could not turn out? They could of rolled a truck and were wanting more people in station for radio's, second appliance etc, there is much more to every situation than what you read on the pager site!
Ah christ, as long as a truck turns up...As stated before if the shoe were on the other foot, watch the sparks fly then!
must be. anyone care to expand on why the mfs are on passive duty? that boms system we work off must be 1st classMFS: *CFSRES INC035 28/07/08 10:57,RESPOND Vehicle Accident,HEASLIP RD,EDINBURGH MAP 50 G 9 TG182,CNR OF EDINBURGH CAR VS LIGHT POLE,SLSB19 CFS Salisbury Response
Stop call! MFS in attendance before CFS recieved call CFS Salisbury Response
In the crews defence I heard Salisbury MFS state that it was CFS area and had they been called to comms,the answer being NO and the subsequent page.
is it going to the dogs at the moment??? lol...thats the third brigade to be walked over now...
