Kings Park Board also has a couple of fire appliances in the park.

Interesting that Daglish isn't on your list Leigh. Must've been busy.
Yeah, im sure they would have been there, list is only what i heard when i turned the scanner on. Imagine it would have been a daglish/perth turnout?

Stoneville and Chidlow I think mobile to Bullsbrook.

Perth 1st babysitting at Midland.

All units proceeding normal road. ( Bullsbrook)

Midland FRS required back at Bullsbrook fire ground for spot fire controls and headfire.
Hehe, earlier he sounded pretty happy to be knocking off.
