EDM 66 Fire Hydrant

EDM66 We don’t have ornate upright fire hydrants in New Zealand, we have heavy metal plates set into the pavement.  When the firemen need to use water in the street, they lift the plate up, remove one of these hydrants out of the back of the Fire Appliance, and connect it.  Nifty.

Enjoyed all your pieces. Delighted to see such talented pieces. OK, time for me to go and practice, practice and practice some more. Your work has inspired me.

Hi Sandra and thank you for visiting. I am always humbled when a complete stranger tells me I have inspired them, so I thank you for taking the time to leave a comment.
