I did my good deed today...

[mrswadders]

We came across a fire obviously started by kids in milldenhall woods this afternoon,called the fire brigade,got to ride in the truck with 3 hunky firemen! Every girls dream! Oh and they got their long hoses out

[SusieG]

Ooooh, well done MrsW...!!! Could've been far, far worse if you'd not taken any action ...!

My experience with 'hunky firemen' was a tad disappointing ...... We had to call the brigade out at work because of an incident involving me (!!!) - a heater - and a rogue sheet of paper .....

After a 20 minute wait, up rocked the oldest fire tender you can imagine and three 'non-hunky' firemen, bless 'em, who looked like they could be old enough to be the Grandad's of 3 young hunky firemen ...... dragged out the offending smoking heater ......

[happyhumph]

Well done you.

I remember the fire service being called out at school. All the girls lined up against the side of the corridor to ogle the firemen. Some rather nice ones there, but it was the less 'fantasy' firemen who winked & smiled.....

[veggiechicken]

Well done Mrs W................and since we're on Firemen stories.............
Our local fire brigade will come to your home to fit smoke detectors so I asked them to fit some here.
At the appointed hour, a hooooooge fire engine pulled up outside and all the neighbours came out to see whose house was burning down! They were well impressed when I told them they'd come to fit smoke detectors - and so was I.
I thought they'd come in a little van!

[Nicos]

Well done mrsw...you get the gold star award of the day
That could have been an exceptionally dangerous fire there.

.....and you got to ride in the fire engine!....absolutely brill!

Pompiers eh?

[JanieB]

I was burning garden rubbish a couple of years ago and one of the old dears in the old peoples home behind me called the fire brigade thinking my house was on fire. No hunky firemen, just one nice firelady.

[Miss Mousetrousers]

Oh Mrs. Wadders - why didn't you have a sudden fainting fit so they could have given you a fireman's lift?

[mrswadders]

Oh Mrs. Wadders - why didn't you have a sudden fainting fit so they could have given you a fireman's lift?

Ha Ha, if i'm honest I didn't even think about it, even forgot to take a selfie! We have been on a seasonal caravan pitch since march and have grown very fond of the woods so in all honesty I was just worried as what could happen if he fire did get a hold......

Still I have the memory, caused quite a stir when they dropped me back at the site,felt like a celebrity!

[Lumpy]

Good for you Mrs W.

Your prompt action may have saved many animal lives and your gift for you actions was an absolute doosie.........Oh firemen what is it about the uniforms?

[mrswadders]

ooo and as it was so warm they didn't have their jackets on in the truck and were wearing nice tight-fitting t-shirts.................................think I need to go lay down in a cool,dark room now!

[veggiechicken]

Still I have the memory, caused quite a stir when they dropped me back at the site,felt like a celebrity!

So they did give you a fireman's lift

[Lumpy]

I was about to type something that WOULD have been removed by a mod...................whatever a job well done!

[veggiechicken]

Wise decision, Lumpy
I wondered why my pointy stick was twitching

[Lumpy]

It was twitching because I have not been poked, prodded, impaled or jabbed for ages! Go on I dare you!

[Tjbakewell]

good deeds

Nice! Could have spread, you probably saved a few squirrels lives.

I gave a homeless person £2 yesterday which im pretty proud of, cause she was very hungry.
