I am flattered that you are using my firemen saying of which I have given permission for anyone to use as long as my name is on it. I first put this on firehouse.com, then quotegarden .com, then on rollerfuneralhomes .com on the guestbook page of our slain Fire Chief, Chuck Boone. It next appeared on firefighternation.com and now is on a few thousand firemen websites!..Thank you.

I am completely impressed with the article I have just read. I wish the writer of firefighting.co.za can continue to provide so much practical information and unforgettable experience to firefighting.co.za readers. There is not much to state except the following universal truth: One of the most awkward things that can happen in a pub is when your pint-to-toilet cycle gets synchronised with a complete stranger. I will be back.
