Just had an interesting chat with a pal whose neighbour is a fireman in Manchester.
Apparently he does a 14 x hour 3 x night shift per week, and sleeps for most of that. Rest of the time he looks after his gardening business...

Only problem is ....
http://www.fireservice.co.uk/recruit...d-firefighters... when they are needed and they have a maximum of 5 minutes to report to the fire station and mobilise the necessary appliance(s). Retained firefighters will have other occupations, but when the call comes they drop whatever they are doing and become part of a team. Depending on the type of cover given, a retained firefighter may respond from home and/or work, day and/or night.
Yep, mine actually was 15 hours
Anyway, off on a date tonight so need my energy
Taking her somewhere I hope Les.....
Work hard, play hard, Joe
It's a 3rd date - so off round to hers
If it gets too much - as she is a lot younger than me - I will just join the Fire Service so I can have a good kip and work a 40 hour week
Thank you Joe - driving myself as might not be able to walk back!
Went very well indeed
