@Reverend_Makers absolutely brilliant last night, made my lads night pointing him out as well, he did say State of Things would have topped it off though ππ
This week saw @DerbyshireFRS host a working at height training day for the fire investigation dogs. Thanks must go to green watch Ascot Drive for helping out.
Sheffield Wednesday announcing the signing of Ike Ugbo in the middle of a press conference feels old school and itβs brilliant π

Everyone loves a 2 for 1 deal. Well how's this for an offer:
Dearne Fire Station will be raising funds for The Fire Fighters Charity with car wash on Saturday 1 June between 10am and 4pm.
Combine it with a trip to Rotherham Fire Station's open day, running from 10am to 4pm.π
2 firefighters were injured last week in Germany, and a motorway closed for several hours following a fire at a BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) facility.
The fire continued for around 10 hours, forcing the closure of the nearby A31 motorway due to heavy fire gasses (smoke), and also impacted many local residents.
Unfortunately early reports indicate the injuries may have been preventable and were caused when firefighters opened the door to the BESS, remember when we see what we believe to be fire gasses at these facilities, thereβs a high likelihood itβs actually a vapour cloud, the vapour cloud will be highly toxic, highly flammable and also highly explosive.
Opening doors on these facilities not only exposes us to significant heat and flames, it also has a high risk of a potential deflagration or vapour cloud ignition/explosion.
When more details come out and we understand what further learning can be obtained, Iβll try to post an update.

Vapour cloud explosion from a plug-in Hybrid Jeep Wrangler. The vapor cloud is produced by the battery, and it is highly toxic and explosive.
Firefighters need to recognize this and keep their distance. They can fight these fires without being on top of the vehicle. It is also imperative to be on air. The days are gone where you need to see flames or grey smoke to be on air.
