    Hi,

    Just a quick query.

    I rang 112 for the fire brigade today as someone was in the liffey.

    They asked for my number at the end of the call.

    Just wondering if they'd call me back about if the gards need a statement?

    Thanks.

    yea as far as I know they can call back, usually only if the fire brigade for example wasnt able to locate you , thats what happens with us anyway

    It depends on the situation I guess.

    A bit off topic, but these PHECC red cards http://www.phecit.ie/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabId=1315

    Ive always wondered about #1 being the number you're calling from. Do you just say your number the second they answer or what?

    Last year was in a similar situation, a friend called and then while the saving was underway got another call back and was asked to walk down to where the guards were all parked up, and then was questioned about it.

    Thanks all.

    Yeah it was at O Connell Bridge.

    I was walking down the quays and I noticed someone trying to get a life bouy. Thought they were vandalising it until I looked down and saw someone floating down the Liffey. They weren't moving or trying to swim so it didn't look good.

    Someone jumped in off the steps and dragged him out of the water.

    Didn't see what happened after that.

    Hope he's ok.

    In the North a couple of months ago I was out cleaning my car on a Saturday morning around 7am when a car crashed outside my house, two guys jumped out and staggered up the road like nothing happened, I called the police and told them they were obviously drunk. I got a call 5 minutes later saying they were both detained.
