It is perfect for children. Well done.
I think that you have the right level of detail.
Instead of them attending a fire. You could have them rescuing a cat on 
the roof.

Nice one. The feegle approves.

Depends if it is the part of Wales that has the accent or the language. ;-)

Getting a bit carried away with flights of fancy here.
When I was much younger. My father, a fireman, took me to see Wallace a 
dog that had been adopted by his fire station last century.

I did a quick Poser scene.

It must be a huge breed. But a noble dog, rescueing cats ;-)

Best regards,
Michael

Thanks to this, dogs are rising in my esteem again.

The dog of my neighbours is a sorry creature but he has only one friend: 
a cat. They are inseparable.

Hi people,
I would just like to say thanks for all the comments.
I think I will be going for the 'cat rescue' idea and take up Stephen's 
offer of a Poser cat.

As for all that Welsh business. No.
The emblems for fire services are not too exciting so I thought -
fire = dragon. Welsh dragon is smart but red on red is not so good - 
hence white dragon. Red to start fire and white to extinguish.


The speed I work at makes it likely to be a while before project is done.
		... cheers  Bob

A good decision in my view. ;-)

I sent you a sample of a sitting cat to play with.
