Yesterday afternoon we had a trip to the park after all the rain in the morning.
Amongst my mindees is a 13 yr old boy who was on the climbing frame at the park. He managed to get his leg and foot stuck between the bars on the climbing frame and despite the efforts of myself and my 15 yr old daughter we could not free him. He was getting more and more distressed and i decided it was time to get the fire brigade out to free him.
Whilst i was making the call my daughter lifted him up and forwards and somehow he managed to get free - just as i got put through to the fire brigade!!!!! Felt really daft having to explain it was a false alarm but they were really nice to me and just took my details.
3 things from this:
1. In ten years i have never had to call any emergency service!
2. Proof that the older the kids get the more trouble they can be!
3. Having got through to fire service i didn't get to see any hunky firemen!!!
Child is fine by the way - we did an exmaination of his foot:( (don't like feet at best of times never mind sweaty size 9's) and nothing broken. Filled in incident report and his mum was ready to kill him for causing me so much hassle.:laughing:
