Gee - I didn't hear about that one - I do know from listening abit before I feel asleep - 6AR was hammering the jobs out to crews - I just hope this isn't a recurring thing....Delta_246 wrote:Gkoutlis your quite right, it was extrememly busy but they failed to mention all the false alarms yesterday in the city which caused havoc especially the 2 x false fire alarms in the new train tunnel……
I was talking to some colleagues saying that the first couple of days in summer are shocking for false alarms as the heat tests out the alarm systems and the more dodgey ones give way / batteries fail. It was busy for the crews and it was even my turn to cook! French linguini with buttered mushrooms!
I lost count how many times Perth 1st went screaming out of the depo…..
Tell you what this is my first ‘real’ summer and I have not sweated this much in my life before

Cheers for sharing that Delta - It must get frustrating the number of false alarms.

It will be alleged that the juvenile has set fire to cardboard boxes at the rear of Loi’s Eastern Supermarket which has spread through the two storey premises at around 9.45pm.
The boy was arrested and is due to appear in the Perth Children’s Court today charged with Criminal Damage by Fire.

I still want one of those monitors!Kombi wrote:Would any Fesa person know if a Airport Fire Tender would turn out to assist OUTSIDE of the airport at a fire, namely major??
