I guess no amount of training would have prepared those firefighters for this kind of situation.

"These incidents are time-consuming, costly and take up the precious time of our crews who are then unavailable to attend other, potentially life-threatening, emergencies.

"We'd ask the public to take greater care to avoid getting themselves into these often ridiculous situations and to think carefully before dialling 999 and calling us out if there isn't an emergency."

Sorry Sarge. Nobody is listening. The next person will be a lady who had a cucumber stuck in her privates by her husband.

I can't agree with that man, these are really dangerous situations, as ridiculous as they may be - by all means, please do call the authorities. Last year we had to cut a man out of some handrail, even peed himself, but he could've choked himself and was upside down for a long amount of time.

They're not saying to not call for help. They're saying not to frivolously get in such situations in the first place.

The Taliban would do the same if they celebrate Christmas. So what?

I would say, let them enjoy what they want, be it their interest in anything. So long as they don't use their hobbies for inhuman purposes.

Lol, I thought Indian was referring to aboriginals.

That's some silly method of protest but I feel sorry that they are being bullied by the officials and now the law is against them as well.
