Firefighters II

[poliphilo]

The kids had another go at burning down the fence on the far side of the back alley- only this time there were five of them when I went out with my bowl of water and  I got shouted at and had burning sticks waved in my face. I decided (if indeed you actually make decisions in these situations) that I'd call their bluff and just get on with the job- so I did and came out of it unscathed- but it has rattled me some.

I think I acted like I wasn't scared of them. As much as possible I just carried on with my fire-fighting activities as though they weren't there. Hopefully I'll have given them something to think about.
