Last night .......

First off I would like to say to all the new Followers (over there on the right)

Thank you for stopping by and taking me over the 50 count for Followers!!

Love to have you stopping in

Please say hello with a comment

Now .....

With that title I should have linked to the song from The Travelling Wilburys

But I could not find anything on YouTube with a quick search

It was a wet, cold and windy night

Sounds like the start of a horror movie :-)

No really, it was very cold, very wet (been raining all day) and a bit windy

Hubby and I are sound asleep in bed

No, its not one of those stories

When what do we hear at 1 a.m.!!!!!!

But the Evacuation alarm

What a fright!!!!

From a sound sleep to this noise!!!!

BTW - we live in a multi-storey building

So after stumbling around, trying to find warm clothes to put on

We wander down the stairs

Thank goodness its only 3 flights, not the 10 flights we use to have

Out through the lobby

and out the door

........

Oh no - we forgot

Its raining!!!!!!

No cover outside

Lucky for us, it must have been a quiet night for the Firies

They turned up quickly

Checked it out

And let us quickly back inside

Now some people may call this a "False Alarm"

It is extremely rare for a properly maintained, working Fire Alarm System to give "false alarms"

Previous times this has happened

One - a young !!@@##!! idiot decided to do burn-outs in the underground carpark underneath ..

you guessed it

The Smoke Alarm!!!!

That was a warm, sunny afternoon

So not too much trouble was cause

Except for those who got the Firies bill!!!

Another time, someone was cooking something which burnt and they thoughtfully opened their door to disperse the smoke

Yep, guess whats outside the doors

Smoke alarms!!!!

Australia has high standards and laws about this

But it has saved so many lives

Some new immigrants to our country need to remember this!!!

Off my soap box for now

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend
