Update: Firefighter Bill

Bill Evans is a former President of West Pot and an active Old Boy. He is currently training with the Fairfax Volunteer Fire Dept.

Last weekend, I completed firefighter school and got my firefighter I and II certification. Saturday night I celebrated and went out partying with a few firefighters and around 3am found out that this cute firelady not only is in a boxing club but has a tryout with the Divas too. So, we went outside and spared a bit and had some tackling practice. Funny how this seems a lot like rugby...with fire, long hoses and big red trucks!

Still got 6 more weeks of training for minimum staffing so that I will be able to replace a paid career firefighter to save the taxpayer's money... What a bargain. I am working my ass off so I can do a dangerous job for free that others get paid for. That's a forward for you...I hope to be out on Saturdays for the matches in April.

Over and out.
