Thats the truth, Lionel! All that rain then, dry as a buzzards crotch now.

I put my fire pump in for a service last Friday. Had been backburning behind the dam, with pump running, just in case I got nervous. Fat lot of bloody use it was though, because the wretched pump kept stopping less than a minute after each time I started it up. That is NOT what I want to happen in an emergency situation! Hearing Petes horror story goes to show, anytime, anywhere, when you least expect it, expect it!
