Title: Fire brigade tackle dangerous bonfire!
Post by: flatcat on April 04, 2010, 16:54:51
As it was Easter Sunday, and no shops were open, my avatar was bored and thought that he would go out into the garden to potter.

He didn't know why he bought this old van on ebay, but it was going cheap and was located just down the road (quite literally!). He had planned to one day convert it into a camper van but for now the rubbish that had gathered inside had to be taken care of.

He quickly decided that a bonfire should to the trick

He hauled the first barrow load down to the bottom of the garden

The bonfire was taking shape

He went back for the last load of rubbish

He goes to light the fire...

As he lights the fire, the now leaking jerry can of fuel ignites!

The fire grows until the whole rubbish heap is wildly alight!

He panics and hurridly telephones the fire brigade who arrive on record time and set up...

The fire crew fight the wild blaze

The fire cheif offers words of comfort AND advice ;)

After just a minuite or two the fire is almost out, and just a few burning embers are left which the crews dampen down

The fire is now completely out

My avatar gives his thanks to the fire cheif and they are all off back to their homes to enjoy the rest of Easter.

Thanks for the positive comments everyone :wave:

This was a fun one to make with the fire and water (although we had to pour a little petrol on the 'bonfire' to make it ignite!) ;D

And the best thing of all - the water from the fire engines actually put the fire out <:>

If the Playmobil FD was not able to knock the flames down, you could always be their back up source, & pee on the fire to help extinguish it  :lol:!

I've taken a number of photos at incidents where, quite unintentionally, the end result has looked just like that!   ;D

I can actually take blame for my recommendation Richard & Gordon from past ventures using the PM water systems for practice! As Gordon stated when using the small jets of water they can become quite incriminating when you deplete the water supply & someone walks up to see what you were doing :-[!
