Mr Bill came home yesterday a very happy bunny. He had spent the day being trained in the correct use of the radio. In reality this seems to have involved running around a local beauty spot and playing wide games. He had a good day and had hoped to listen to the radio in the evening to learn some more about the codes and whatnot that he needs to know but actually spent the evening realising our area in rural Wales is almost crime free - nothing much happened and so he might have to wait for Friday night to hear what it is really like.
The new recruits were also encouraged to listen in to the control room after their day but this might be a bit useless unless it is a match day or an event is on. However, if they had listened a couple of days ago it could have been quite exciting; not to be outdone by London and Glasgow, we in Llanffuglen have found a couple of 'bombs' for the bomb squad to come and make safe. Several hours of closed roads, annoyed motorists and disrupted shoppers and controlled explsions later all has been well and surprisingly it would seem we are not the next target of Al-Qaeda terrorists - more likely the batty old woman who leaves her jumble outside the wrong shop.
Today Mr Bill is learning exactly what do firefighters do apart from rescue stranded cyclists
