**Maverick9110E** · 10-06-2005, 06:14 PM

Naughty little Kiwi--it looks as tho you have obtained a PhD in Aussie Charm and Deportment.

By the way-regards from Whangaparaoa, we never did get to injest a amber liquid or two. Previously "EllEffBee" then "Tooanfrom" (only changed cos every time this lot changes the setup--all my previous gets wiped!)

How about "The Pids"? I am sure they will work it out --eventually.

**FlyingKiwi** · 10-06-2005, 10:08 PM

Good to hear from you too.

I will be up your way a fair bit soon for work and will PM you before heading that way.

Next idea for the substation workers.

Sub-Standard.

Any ex military...

Sub-Marine.

**ltdenning** · 10-06-2005, 10:21 PM

Castaways??

if you run EMS maybe the "Boonie-docs"

Misfits?

"The Pids" as in STUPID

B4 u get your knickers in a knot--it is just a friendly Fire Brigade Urine extraction---i.e taking the P#ss

**2andfrom** · 10-06-2005, 11:38 PM

Kiwi--if you need to "E" me--and I hope you do, Superchef has my home address--the setup that is currently in vogue with Firehouse is a pigs breakfast(or more likely it is due to Pilot error(moi)--or do it thru this thread.

Thought you were in Perth?

He had to or we wouldn't let him in - it's an immigration requirement

Righto Memsaib.

Will get the addy from Cheffie.

Perth came a Gutsa due to PPP

(P!$$ Poor Planning) on behalf of the other party.

As opposed to PPPPPP

(Proper Prior Planning, Prevents P!$$ Poor Performance)

Commonly reffered to as 3P and 6P
"See 3P, Oh" was NEVER a robot.

Maverick

What the heck is that small red thing in front of the big red red thing in the photo? (from the signatature line)

Did you leave one of them out in the rain ?

Possibly

"Big Red" for the nickname.

"Little Flick" for the probies.

Damn, you beat me to it.

Using the ole' Aussie humor overseas can be disastrous though, some people dont seem to get it, or they think you are really insulting them

Patty--we have to be very circumspect explaining certain things in our part of the world--in the land of the "Septic Tanks" knocking a female up means a whole lot more than giving her a early morning shake. And that might even need clarifying!

**E229Lt** · 10-07-2005, 08:02 AM

What direction is the substation from the main? If it's west, go with:"Westpoint"

Others:
The Last Outpost

The Journeymen

F Troop

**doughesson** · 10-08-2005, 11:27 AM

On the Farley side of Reidland Farley Fire Protection District,we're the Farlem Knights.
The Reidland guys and gals have been trying for two years to think of something.But,they're the part of the family that gets all the new toys while we"get the cardboard box"so I guess it evens out somewhere.

**doughesson** · 10-08-2005, 11:28 AM

The Misbegotten Toys,maybe?

I got a septic tank. The evaporation trenches keep the grass REALLY green and ,unfortunately, REALLY fast growing.

yeah, two of my brothers knocked their girlfriends up. One is due in January and the other is due half way through next year.

I'd rather go to Fires in the Smaller of the two Red things............

Since you're at the substation, which is somewhat of an outpost, try "Outpost Outcasts"
