Gavle River


This week i have been on day shifts in Gavle, working with each different crew. I've also been show bit of the different gear that they use.

On wednesday night i went for a little dip in the river with Gp 2. They were doing a drill in Water Rescue, so i decieded to join in. It was dark, around 7 pm, outside temp bout 2 deg, water temp not so sure but i do know it was wee bit cold. We got kitted up into the dry suits for our little swim, first leap in was a shock with water in my face, so glad the suits were fairly new so no leaks. The only problem is not too much protection for the hands, the wetsuit material still gets wet so my hands were were fairly cold.

It was interesting drill and bit of fun, so really enjoyed it.

Well there is still couple days left to work this week, tomorrow i'llbe with Gp4 the shift ill be starting with after next week, can't wait till im on a shift, day work = early mornings.....
