Evenin’ all.

A bit late this time, but only recently got home from fire training, and had to deal with 50 emails.

We are one of the lucky few fire brigades that has a retired BOM expert who gave us a full 2 hour description of how the weather works(in theory).

Then one of our aircraft nerds, with a half hour explanation of what firefighting aircraft we are likely to see overhead this season. The previous water bomber contractor has lost the contract due to (amongst other things) “parking” a 737 in the bush at high speed.

We ran out of time and will continue the discussion next week.

That sounds like an interesting evening. All I did was watch videos of an elephant getting an enema, as I did the ADHD thing and hopped around the internet. I also watched a show on ABC iView and photographed a tiny flower.

I had a busy week. Our company are going to be exhibitionists at the Perth 4WD and Camping Show this weekend. We are hosting a couple of other businesses under our tent too. I have not been asked to work the weekend, between the family that owns the business and the other businesses there are enough to cover without paying overtime penalty rates. So I still get my long weekend. But gees, it was as much effort getting packed and ready as moving house, and have to unpack it all on Monday, unless they sell everything.

So I’ve got home very tired, had dinner, had a shower and ablutions, and then parked down in the armchair and opened cold beers. Happy ThNDC!

“exhibitionists” Sounds interesting.

Is it legal in public?
