12 firemen, three engines one teen stuck in a kiddie swing
Once the entire article is read, I suppose it might make some sense. ??
I found it at NuttyNews but the link here is for the Mail which has more photos.
I thought it might be good for a quick laugh. Probably not for the girl in the swing tho.
Anyway, makes a brief (very brief) thing from my usual.
Twelve firefighters in three fire engines called to rescue teenage girl who got stuck in a SWING in local park
Girl was trapped in the child’s swing yesterday in Finsbury Park, London
Three engines, containing at least 12 firefighters, were called to deal with it
London Fire Brigade said: ‘We take anything to do with children seriously’By Kieran Corcoran
Three fire engines and at least twelve firefighters were mobilised to rescue a teenage girl who was stuck in a child’s swing.
The girl slid herself into the swing in Finsbury Park, north London, yesterday afternoon, but was unable to get out without assistance.
The large contingent of firefighters, who arrived in three separate fire engines, were eventually able to free her after removing the swing from its frame.
It is believed the girl was freed after the firefighters were able to slide the swing off of her legs.
A bystander told MailOnline: ‘She had her hands in her head, embarrassed, and was being filmed by her family and was clearly stuck in the child’s swing.’
‘A lot of firemen had showed up - they were there for about 15 minutes. They took the chains off the swing and managed to slide it off of her.
‘She wasn’t hurt - just embarrassed as there were a lot of people stood by and watching.
‘People were wondering why there were so many fire engines, though.’
A spokesman for the London Fire Brigade said: ‘We were called just after 6pm yesterday to a child stuck in a swing.
‘We take anything to do with children seriously, and send the correct response for any eventuality.
‘We never know exactly what we’re going to find until we get there, but once we ascertained what it was we were able to free the child from the swing and get our fire engines away quickly.’
‘Two fire engines and a fire rescue vehicle was sent. The rescue unit has specialised cutting equipment and if we are called to someone stuck we may well need to use that.’

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
