Car Wash 15 Images1 Video

In September I helped to raise money for Weston Spirit by taking part in a Car Wash at Kirkdale Fire Station. So far the fund raising was going quite well and we were getting closer to our set target. We had to get up really early to go into town, so I took advantage of a Mc Donald's breakfast.... or two. Unfortunately our plans to get the train were quashed and we had to get the bus into town and then to the fire station. When we got to the station we found the fire fighters to be really friendly and they treated us some toast, which Michael kept on going back for and blaming on Joey. We also had lots of gear with us to set up including banners and signs. We had a bit of trouble when we hung our banner over a banner of the car dealerships next to the station, but Claire sorted it out democratically before we hit the guy who came out. Then me and Joey were assigned the task of putting up a sign down the road. We couldn't get it just right for Claire because she is such a perfectionist and we had to keep jogging down the road to fix it. In the end we managed to get a steady flow of drivers coming in, who all gave generously. The whole thing turned into a series of pit stops. A quick soak, a scrub and a rinse down. I was assigned the job of being on the hose at the end, and it was so powerful I nearly scraped the paint off most of the cars. All in all we had a good day, and returned home nackered and full of soot from our fire fighter uniforms.
