Can't remember what I clicked on. Probably some waltbulance on Facebook or on here and eBay recommended this to me.

All that LWB space to play with, and the poor hound has a tiny, dark, wooden box to live in?

Next to the gas cylinder too, pray for no regulator or hose leaks..
Doesn't look particularly easy to clean out that dog carrier, nor does it offer any ventilation, and it's next to the hot water boiler. Sounds like a disaster waiting for happen for man's best friend.

Speaking of fire, check out the Walt in the grey t-shirt waving everyone off while he stands next to a burning car. Supplementary Walts also appear in the video. Apologies for the vertical.

Disco inferno, burn baby burn

I think I saw the same guys with buckets at the local flood
I assume the first fire engine that arrived wasn't actually fire brigade as it arrived and then promptly did nothing. Then one with lights you could see and sirens arrived and put it out
That first fire engine is ancient, circa late 90s. I know some brigades retain some older stuff but I can’t imagine they’d still be running motors of that vintage. Possibly it might have been in some sort of private ownership or belong to an organisation other than the fire service (some steam locomotive operators run them as water tankers, for example). Or there’s just a local walt on the loose.
Dennis Sabre I think? Probably a reserve vehicle while one is off the road.?

Are these suitable for a MAJOR event, or just a normal event?

There is an old biddies walking group here, they congregate at the GPs surgery and then go for a walk on the perfectly safe path ways.

Two self appointed leaders of this group decided they needed to be wearing hi viz during this dangerous activity I observed. Amy excuse for some people to think they are a bit more important than they are.

There is one of those by us. They do look very odd, like an elderly school party off for a stroll.

I always expect them to, but they don't. They do usually form a crocodile though laugh

These are only suitable for an event attended by a female nurse being stalked by MrMinion, or possibly clearing a landing zone for the Air Ambulance.

I’ve always like the styling of those roof racks, but not very practical, you have to buy the proper bars

Back in the day we just lashed all sorts of stuff on, not now!

K9 reversed so people can read it in their rear view mirror.

I can see it now, an old couple driving along in vintage triumph stag, the driver with his mesh back gloves and hat, perhaps some glasses and a waxed moustache, his wife in the passenger seat with a hat on, perhaps held in place by a head scarf. They've been out to visit friends they haven't seen for a while and maybe a spot of lunch but definitely heading home now and he looks in his rear view mirror and says "there's a dog in the car behind us Margaret, " That's nice dear she says and carries on doing her knitting paying no real attention to what her husband has just said.

Do they have those walking poles/killing sticks so they can spear errant crisp packets on their way around?

Zoomed in and taken in the wing mirror. K9 or 9K, still a ridiculous little Walt.
