Yeah take a look at my old firehouse at Shaftesbury Avenue by Cambridge Circus right in the heart of the west end of the city - theatre land. They'll make you welcome I am sure.

On July 5th my wife and I fly out to London for the World Road Rescue Challenge. This is being held in Cardiff – Wales, I am so looking forward to seeing the United Kingdom of England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland. I have never been north of Australia, so bring it on. Departing Cardiff on the 13th July, Barbara and I will be taking a tour of Ireland from the South to Dublin, spending 2 nights; from Dublin across to the North of Wales into Scotland up to Edinburgh; another 2 nights; down through Scotland into England, spending 1 night in London, then Home by the 27th July.
If any of my FFN friends are involved in this year’s world Challenge, Road Rescue. I hope you let me know and catch up with me over there.
Yours Leo

David you can see these helmets at http://www.msa-europe.com/index.php?id=478&L=0 but they won't be NFPA compliant (they aren't leather for a start) :-)

That's awesome! Do you have a website for the company or companies that make them or how is the best way to find out more and or contact them? I'm doing great and just taking things the best i can. You take care of yourself and I will talk to you soon.

Hey all - I'm just getting to grips with this great website and forum. Thanks for all your welcoming wishes and for adding me as a friend. Look forward to talking with you all.

I've been hearing more and more about those crazy fire helmets you wear over there. I've also heard that the ONLY bad thing about them is that you lose all hearing because of it covering up the ears. Is that true and have they worked on it or have a different model that takes care of that?
