wet or cold-they are always on the
job.
With their two fire engines they
seem able to cope with some very
stubborn fires, and are generally
victorious. The past year has seen
some good work on their part; the
subdueing of many forest fires have

forests for future use. Yes, we are
very proud of our fire laddies. Let
us rally to their support at all
times.
