London's burning!

Today, we went with our home education group for an eagerly anticipated visit to the fire station. We arrived and had the start of the introduction, about how calls come in, when a real call arrived. There was an announcement, all the lights came on and two minutes later both fire engines were gone.

The empty station.

All was not lost, the children enjoyed an afternoon with their friends and Younger Daughter played rounders.

I was grateful that we had had a discussion on the way about the fact that this might happen so that the children took this in their stride. Hopefully, we might be able to look at the fire engines on another occasion.
