i was on asset protection as there was a fair but of sparks/embers coming out the top and hitting the roof and there were plenty of leaves.

dont know if i got any water in, but cooled down the bricks which would of helped.

Stanley Bridge Hotel! That's just around the corner from my farm.

Thanks for saving it! One of the few pubs in the hills (or Adelaide in general for that matter) that doesn't have Pokies.

that front door is a hazard, wacked my head on it twice last night. lucky i was wearing a helmet. ironically, if i wasnt wearing my helmet, i would of seen how low it is.

Reckon they owe you a free Schnitter and a pint :D

What CFS brigade are you in?

i think they do but i dont think it would be politically correct to accept.

im part of bridgewater brigade.

You're bloody spoilt Eevo ;), telescopic light tower, hydrant right outside the front door and beer laid on !!!

I guess 'asset protection' in modern day speak is minimising hose chafe on the walls and keeping dirty boots and sooty water off the best Axminster ? :D

Back in the day found a 32mm hose with a fine mist fog branch lowered slowly from above to be very effective on a chimney fire. Had to be pretty careful though as the resultant steam coming out of the chimney was definitely hazardous. Towells and rags/blankets on the hearth did a good job of minimising damage internally. Amazing how much water could be fed in (and turned to steam) before water actually reached the hearth.

we discussed doing that a 25mm, but roof really didnt look that strong.
