Was listening to an incident last night in the Northern suburbs, can't remember street. Called a second alarm on arrival by Yanchep however might have upgraded with extra appliances.
Appliances I remember:
Butler,
Yanchep
Wanneroo LT1
Wanneroo LT3?
Quinns Rocks LT3
Requested were also Quinns 3.4 (It is a 3.4 you guys have isn't it fastlane?), and a Dozer.

Marmion Avenue, Eglington. And yup, plus Wanneroo 4.4 and Joondalup 2.4
Initial report was that the fire was in Yanchep, hence the FRS turnout.
.. don't you sleep, Tyranus!?

I do...sometimes

, I had some WARSUG catching up to do after 9 days away from it. That's right I heard Joondalup 2.4 heading out. Turned it off when Quinns LT3 turned out around 0130?

I reported a smallish fire coming from one of the storm water drains on StGeorges Terrace this afternoon, just outside the commonwealth bank. 16:30
Unsure the cause of the fire, but think smoke and flames visible from the left lane drain, so called FESA whilst waiting for my bus and kept buses and people away from it till FESA arrived.
Great turn out by Perth 1st arrived within 3-4 minutes, and managed to get to work with hose reel - extinguished in a few mins.
SO - stated it could have been a cigarette butt that caused it...
Sorry didnt get time to take pics.
