As a former RFS and SES volunteer I watch with nervous anticipation. Let’s hope all the volunteers have a quiet day and night.

Rain, hail, or shine - Braidwood Rural Fire Service training this afternoon was slightly on the soggy side but worth practising skills no matter the weather...

On the right, some distance from the trucks is a small firefighting truck the size of a farm utility, underneath is the caption "Reality" with a laughing emoji.

Last weekend I completed and passed the #NSWRFS "Rural Fire Driving" course, and this weekend I completed and passed the "Off Road Driving" course.
I learnt so much - but it would not have been possible without the encouragement, support, and training from my brigade. #Braidwood

Went out on an ambo assist today. A bit chaotic - involving an older community member - nothing catastrophic thankfully.

Anyhoo - check in on your elderly family members or neighbours, especially if they have been recently bereaved - grief & loneliness are a terrible combination.

Glad I submitted my writing last night, because this morning has been hectic.

Call out for an ambulance assist on a property out of town, then back to the rec ground to prep for the helicopter.

Back home now enjoying the delicious locally made donuts.

Went out on my first "live fire" call today. All ended well, but a sad situation involving non-English speaking older folks who were unaware that pile burns need a permit this time of year (and a good water supply on hand!). Total fire ban here tomorrow. Keep hydrated & check on the oldies

The #NSWRFS updated their FB profile picture for Mardi Gras - and it is a beautiful thing to see.

They've had to turn off comments - so many of them are borked, but they did leave a great comment of their own (in the ALT). So many "angry" emojis - but so far "LOVE" is in the lead! β€οΈπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ #AusPol

Not long back from my first #NSWRFS call out.

Not a fire, but to assist ambulance service in an isolated rural location.

* Please check in on your elderly neighbours if you haven't seen or heard from them recently - especially after the recent #heatwave *

Would love to see fossil fuel companies pay a climate crisis levy to fund fighting the shitfuckery they create.
Shouldn't be a problem to raise a few billion in Australia:
