    Default Lovely load of firemen turned up on my doorstep just now!

    In their big shiny red fire engine! I'd asked for a fire inspection months ago and almost forgot about it.
    They stayed 10 mins and fitted two free smoke alarms that last at least 10yrs.
    And did i mention they were GORGEOUS

    can you just ask for them to come out and check your house? i knew nurseries etc, had visits from the Fire Service, but didn't know childminders could as well!

    Our previous house was owned by a Fireman who had fitted a dodgy (would you believe) smoke alarm so my father in law popped to local station and asked about it, they were really puzzled and as i had a 5 weeks old baby at the time they said they would pop round............. well 2 fire engines turned up ( im sure they bought sandwiches for their day out lol) at least 8 fireman 3 of which were in my house trying to work out this smoke alarm, the others just sat in the engines!!! but they were all gorg..... good job my mother in law was there at the time as i was abit tongue tied with them and all a fluster lol. Anyway they fitted me two new smoke detectors and gave me a lecture etc..... turned out they knew the fireman who lived there before me and they wern't impressed he of all people had fitted a dodgy device lol

    Still it made my day

    I know most of the fireman in my town.......

    Not as bad as it sounds, honest!

    I live in a small town with a retained Fire station, so all the firemen are locals!
