    Interesting, but I am talking about a concrete Rainwater Tank Clean with clean Air at the surface. Chemical would be a different set of circumstances


    At least if the first guy is wearing an "around the neck flotation device" (PFD) but cannot activate it, then the 2nd bloke could, & at least keep #1's head above water until the AMBOs/Fire Service arrive then it is a different Ball game of getting the bloke out of the manhole & Resus him/her.

    These blokes wear cumbersome waist length Waders so stumbling seems to be a possibility. Not sure whether a Mobile Phone would even work in a steel roofed concrete structure also assuming it wasn't dropped to the bottom in the panic.

    Seems to me that at least 2 blokes should be in the tank for just such an Emergency.

I said well there is a first time for everything & just because you're not in a boat doesn't mean to say you won't cark it.

    I honestly believe they haven't even thought about it although one would think WH&S would like to have a word.


    Not in my tank then fellas.
    I always thought the tanks were ment to be open and drained(ing) during cleaning.

In desperation he lit a small fire under the mule. The bloody mule moved forward until the cart was over the fire and there he stopped! Not sure what happened to the cart, but I think that if it had been me the mule would have very soon found a ventilation hole in his head!

    Maybe that is correct, Dave, but when I booked the clean, all they told me it must have aprox. 1 metre of water in it so they can move around & pump the crap outside. Including the dead rat in a bucket, unless they brought that with them to justify the clean. Suspicious? Moi?


    Many tanks here are permanently roofed to stop the ingress of Possums & other fauna.

    'er indoors still hasn't got over seeing this rat in the bucket. BiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilLLLL.!

    The colour didn't change, despite the roasting.

    It is hardly the chook's fault, there are no safety warning bollards & Orange plastic fencing & certainly no signs which is ok if the Chook can read Chook & not English..
