What are these fire engines doing?

[SneakyGremlins]

Arrived, lights on, parked up - now sat there in darkness. No firefighters in one engine, two sat in the dark in the other one.

What's going on?

They came out on a fire engine to check my smoke alarm

(they run a new tenant scheme in my area and come out for free to check alarms!)

In a fire engine, not on!! Although I guess that could work too.

Did it take two though? And one where they've been sat in it for an hour in the dark?

Are they playing hide and seek?

Am wife of fire fighter. My educated guess would be the alarm has gone out but no obvious source of fire sooo they have to traipse around bit by bit checking every address.
My chap was 2 hours at the local hospital recently searching for a break glass that had been knocked.
Glamourous it ain't.

Lift problem I reckon. As in an elevator, not a Fireman's lift IYSWIM.

Domino's are only takeaway aren't they? you can collect dominos, even sit in, in my local. Why would anyone want to do that I have no idea. Domino's needs to be eaten in pants on the sofa. Now I'm thinking about firemen in their pants eating pizza....

Awoof That's interesting, thankyou!

Raven what about firemen in their pants bringing you pizza right to the sofa?

Moonlighting as strippers at Joan's at 54.

Have you tried the fire brigade website? Ours log the callouts as and when they come in so you can see what they've been up to.

someone stuck?

washine mashine 'walked' to block the flat door (happened to a friend)?

Dead You can do that????

Grems I told you not to spy on me with those binoculars. Anyway, one of them was a woman, what are you trying to suggest?

Dogging. Firefighters are mad for it.

Sprayed Bourbon biscuit about at this comment 😆 love it

I love the way you know it's NOT the local dogging spot

What do you think Grems has binoculars for?

Phil Shut it

Perverse I live in the naice part of town, not the dogging part.

Thanks for sharing the photo OP. Yes, definitely dogging. I think I can just make out a firefighter's bottom bobbing up and down in the background.

Bloody firefighters. Always at it.

Phil Shut it 😂

Dogging. Firefighters are mad for it.

I laughed so loud I spat out my intestines.

The secret service are spying on someone, unobtrusively. It's a double bluff.

Could be a hoax call and they’re just making sure it’s not genuine?

I actually shat my pants reading that.

Come on now.

Aw they've gone

They will be eating their chips!
