    Thanks for posting that OP - absolutely brilliant - and very professionally produced! Sort of brings you back to reality after all the 'spend, spend, spend' hype.

    Having had need of an ambulance crew this year I can attest to their skill and dedication. The couple that attended were an old hand and a young female who had given up a secure job , not in medicine, to "do something more productive and beneficial in life". Her words not mine. She regretted the long hours but loves the job.

    So a mighty +1 from me Oneputt.

    Yes, great post. Having used their services for Mrs C's parents a lot in the past a big thank you to them all and a merry Christmas to many of them who will be working over the holidays. It's good to know they are there.

    Absolutely brilliant video, and what a nice voice the Firefighter has!

    I spent possibly 50% of my married Christmas days without my OH at home, as did other members of the family. My best friend always went into the hospital where she was Director of Nursing to support the working staff there. Very special people, still doing dangerous and essential work throughout the holidays. Absolute stars⭐️⭐️ ⭐️

    Thanks for sharing, lovely and a nice reminder to say thank you to ALL emergency workers and ancillary staff who keep the wheels turning in hospitals and police stations as well as the fire station. 

    In view of our year we've had to use 2 of the services, no disrespect but I'm happy not to need the 3rd if at all possible 😉, this year. In all our uses they gave very compassionate and caring response, even though the 2 ambulance staff had to hang around for a couple of hours after their shift finished to handover to the police, on top of a normal long shift.

    A VERY BIG THANK YOU to all those who care for others, paid and unpaid.
