Parade and pool

Ok so I hope you have found this entertaining, Captain certantly has! Day 4 has provided a lot of waiting around. The Pippers have made Captain go and do several things that have taken him all day. The  poor bloke hasn't even been able to sleep much!
Waking up on the 4th day I was greeted to no ambulance and no fire engine. As Captain was sleeping the total of 3 hours he could have I wasn't able to go out. It turns out The Beast never returned post the "big" fire but kept getting sent elsewhere. The ambulance was out for the third time that night! Anyway, there were a load of people around in shorts and T-shirts. Part of the training is to do a sunday 7k run. After parade (Kind-of. My sister in my volunteer role, who I hope is reading, should teach them properly!), they leave. So I take advantage of a looong hot shower and writing yesterdays blog. They return several hours later and Captain naps. We all get lunch (nice fried chicken) and they are sent again on an event that they were on yesterday. Upstairs, there is a group of people practicing BLS (more like everything to become an ETA!). So, of course, I go and watch a few of the scenarios.
Now throughout my time being at the station house with people who don't speak English, naturally I have been learning some Spanish (If you know me, I did Spanish GCSE and waned to learn properly since). Apparantly, I am not that good. I went to the local mini shop, asked for any chocolate without nuts, and get presented with 4 types, Three have nuts! I go for the fourth which is fudge (which I also don't like)! Really, I wanted to get these mint oreo type things! Returning I play more games of pool, loose them all and just chill. There is no trucks out as there is no drivers! The rescue truck (now to be called green) is broken.leaking (green) coolant over the floor. Earlier, they tried to fix it with an egg white (Captain really needs to write a book about the "101 bizarre uses of eggs") and it didn't work. When Captain gets back we decide not to have another night in the fire house and head back to the flat.

Now, day 5 is more eventful. The day starts by chilling at the flat for a little while hearing stories about Captain in the varying countries he is from. If I learn nothing in these 2 weeks, I do know this:
-Don't get on the wrong side of Captain
-Don't pull a practical joke on Captain
-Don't come to Peru and graduate as a bombero.

So captain can make phone calls that relate him directly to the planes. He has threatened me with if I pull a practical joke on him, he will divert my plane elsewhere and not the UK. Understood.

I know we are going elsewhere today, not to Los Bomberos, although I don't know much. Iguess we shall see.
