its contained at the moment.

[Wazza Y]

Nope Bully never went? About to head down to the Baldivis fire, were sending a crew of 2 x LT's for the 12am to 6am mop up shift. Time for another coffee I think. West Swan are apparently going too, That will cheer them up

[Wazza Y]

Yep, West Swan 3.4 and LT on their way

Might have only got one of the 2 support helicopters but I saw 2 up there.
Also got at least 2 different water bombers, 1 of which is bomber 10.

I was there with SJA - (Baldivis Incident) last night.

Noted - South Yunderup, Dwellingup and North Dandalup 3.4, couple of the Gosnells LT's.

And ofcourse East Swan and West Swan LT's and a 3.4 as well.

Assisting mop-up.

The sector I was in for the graveyard had:

East Swan & West Swan Lt's and 3.4's
Roleystone 3.4
Gosnells LT & 2.4

[Gohie]

Bullsbrook had 2 Light tankers there. Interesting that Baldivis called on Swan Brigades for the midnight shift again but Goosberry Hill incident had limited Swan attendance. Do not want to enter into a discussion - just an observation.

[Wazza Y]

Ok Tyranus, so where do we go then to chat about Major incidents and appliances attending ect?
Bigfella, so you were sector 2 then?
