Looks like he has picked up a job as the channel 9 weather man. Saw an advert this morning.

Now thats going to be a big clean up!

I have a spare 4 day general admission pass and one spare general admission pass for each day if anyone is keen? Pm me.

Anyone else going?

I also got this for x-mas, good read. It covers an independent review, estimated losses, satellite imagery, main stories from people affected by the fire and articles, letters and reports.

I'm not sure where it is available to purchase but the editor is Helen Proude and the ISBN number is 0-646-46787-5

Does anyone else have one?

I just got mine for x-mas but havn't taken it to a job yet.

For people interested in buying one you can get them from a few different places. Ebay,  http://www.firehelmetcam.net/ or http://www2.oregonscientific.com/shop/browse.asp?cid=6&scid=14

After buying mine of Ebay and modifying a torch clip to suit (which took ages). I would say the best bet is to buy the full kit of firehelmetcam.net to save the hassle. Though I'm not sure how well their camera mounts suit our helmets, may need to be bent a little bit to suit the right level of view.

Here's some pics for people interested and theres also a video. The quality though is reduced and all 'blocky' (You tube thing), don't mind the audio alot of wind noise.

Can anyone give me a list of the K-Codes for the action taken at a job? They only recently started to use them I believe???

Personally I think it was quite a flop. Dead boring.

Did CFS put much planning into it?

A couple of old pictures i dug up.

I believe 431 tried to go off road, opps.

Are there any official rulings on crossing a leveling P1 once the boom gates/lights have operated?

Just crossed my mind today as we don't deal with any crossings in our area.

I am wanting to get some prices on a couple of Co2 detectors for our BA gear, similar to the ones MFS have.

Have any other brigades purchased these before?

Did anyone else happen to see the CFS issue on the news?

Go VFBA!

What happens when you speed and don't notice the new round abouts.

I found this amusing

Excuse the Camera phone quality, but you can see I was close :) I was driving by as smoke started appearing.

I was hoping Easter would be quiet
