    Hi Erin, thanks for the reply. Much the same here, the weather's after picking up somewhat, so gorse fires (like wildland) are starting to increase (on top of the usual fires, R.T.A's, and other misc. calls we get). Well take care and look after yourself and your buddies!

    Hi Erin, Sorry for the confusion, over here we call them road traffic accidents (rta's) or road traffic collisions (rtc's). I think you call them M.V.A.'s over on your side. It's not nice to say but unfortunately they're our most common calls!

    You got it right in one sister! Unfortunately they're gonna keep on happening no matter what new laws or rules the authorities introduce. (but we'll just have to hope!)

    Hey Erin, how's things with you? Are you getting many calls lately? It's after quietening down here a bit, you mightn't get any calls for a day or two and all of a sudden hell breaks loose on the next day and you're going non-stop (Typical!), Talk soon and take care
