Hmmmm I was coming home tonight from 'Frankston' travelling down 'Skye Rd' when I see a small fire next to the sidewalk in very dry bushy area, I drove past slowly thinking some homeless guy must have a little camp fire burning to keep warm....Turn around and it is starting to get bigger as the wind was fanning the flames.
A young woman who just arrived home was on the phone to the fire department, me being ever resourceful stopped across the road from the fire, I put my hazard lights on go to the boot of the car and grab the shovel, yes I drive around with a shovel in the car, run across the road and look for some dirt.....Well I started digging into the nature strip watching the fire grow, I throw the dirt into the path of the fire to stop it spreading slowing working my way back towards the end that the wind was blowing.
Happy days as the young girl was talking to the Fire Department telling them I was there with a shovel putting dirt onto the fire.
Disaster averted, we grabbed each others first name then she said she would wait for the Fire department after saying it was lucky I had a shovel what are the chances of that.
I said I am glad someone else cared enough to actually do something at least 5 other cars just went straight past.
Good deed done for the day....
