5) Roses And Raspberries Bulawayo Fire Brigade were called to a thatched house fire a couple of weeks ago on a hot and very windy Tuesday morning. Aside of unbelievable neighbourly support for the home-owner, along with a big team from Whitestone School - the effort by the fire-fighters was outstanding. The fire, a direct cause of cable thieves across the Hillside Conservancy vlei area, took a long while to get under control, and water pressure from the nearby municipal hydrant was poor. I suggested that we use their dewatering pump to use our pool water to augment the engines, and water tender. A workable pump, which fired first pull, was deployed, and we managed an additional two hours of water at a crucial time in the fight. One empty pool later, and a tender overnight to check on the smoldering thatch, imagine my total astonishment that when I popped home for lunch on Wednesday morning to find my pool had been refilled at no cost, by our amazing Fire Brigade. I am still astounded at this action - so thoughtful and so well-received. Roses in abundance to our amazing Fire Brigade who fight endless blazes, attend numerous vehicle accidents and who don't get the accolades they so richly deserve! Our neighbour managed to save most of his possessions as a result of tireless efforts of neighbours, in itself a sterling and selfless action. HHM
