Message from the Webmaster

Well here we are, three years on, and the site goes from strength to strength... 200,000+ hits in three years, we MUST be doing something right!!!

Many said we were at nothing, scoffed at the idea, but the generosity shown by the majority...and not all in Ireland, has been enormous. Anytime we sought a picture of an imported appliance not alone did we get one photograph but sometimes three and four and even from outside the UK. The people in question will know who they are,it is appreciated by the “Blues & Twos” team. We are certainly
heartened and it only encourages us to try that little bit harder in 2008.

The backbone is broken now and we have a pictorial record of over 95% of the current Irish fleet including Northern Ireland. All we ask now for 2008 is keep those pictures and fleet information coming and we will keep the site, one of the best in these islands,if not THE best.

Photographs from a few counties are STILL required to complete this project, in particular we would welcome photo's of the CURRENT appliances in MAYO and WICKLOW. Information on Drill/Practice nights in ALL areas would also be appreciated.

We're also seeking information on Sidhean Teó appliances (see Notice Board page), and actual addresses of fire stations.

ANY photo's used on the site will will be credited with the name of the sender.

Thanks again

Eddie (Gentles) and Eamon (Doyle)
