Hi Alex,
I'm with the Darlington Volunteer Bush Fire Brigade (http://www.darlingtonfire.org.au/) which is located about a 10min drive east of Midland. I would be happy to give you a tour of our station while you are here. We do our weekly "scheds" (station and vehicle checks and maintenance) on a Saturday morning from 9am-11am. If you haven't yet planned anything for the Saturday morning you're more than welcome. Otherwise I can show you around another time if more convenient.

That would be awesome mate!
I have arranged to go to the Baldives station on the Saturday too, so I will sort out what time I will be going, then will let you know :)

Thanks for that!
Also, if you want to do a shirt swap, let me know ;)

Hey mate,

I did PM you, but i'll post in here as well.

First of all welcome to WARSUG. I am a firefighter with Bullsbrook VFS, about 15-20 mins up the great northern highway from midland. I would be more than happy to show you around our appliances and the gear we use.

I will be between jobs at that point, and as such free all week so can do whenever to fit in with any other brigades around the shop, however we do our vehicle checks and training on Sunday morning (9-11) each week so if you are free that morning come on down.

Anything I say is my opinion, and has nothing to do with/does not reflect the views of anyone I was/am/will be involved with/employed by/volunteer for/associated with. There, I think that should cover it!

This sounds like an opportunity for a beer!

Alex, since you're basing yourself from Midland, and you've got invitations from Darlington and Bullsbrook to go pay them a visit, this sounds like a perfect opportunity for a beer/wine and a feed somewhere in the Swan Valley maybe on the Saturday evening.

Let us know if you're free and I'm sure we can put something together :)
