    Two calls for us on the Sunday. Didn't go very well.

    First call we got, truck started, but had no electrics, beacons, sirens, lights indicators haha. Got back and restarted the truck and everything worked fine :?

    Second call, our officers pager didn't go off.

    Both times, I blame the FENZ transition

    K28'd for both calls anyway.

    Haha fun times.

    Just a big shout out to the local volleys. I was shifting sheep when I saw black smoke rising from the neighbours place. Thought it may have just been a rubbish fire, but got my binos out to check. The shipping container was well engulfed, and wind was blowing towards house. Got phone out to ring when I heard the hooter go off. Comfirmed it had been called in and waited. The volleys were the first there, followed a couple of minutes later by the paid fireys. Fire contained to the container only. Good stuff guys
