Three people drowned in total, another three policemen nearly drowned jumping in to help their colleagues.</p> <p>Difficult to have an overarching policy, but that is perhaps the grounds for emergency services not to risk themselves and their colleagues...'the domino effect' </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=39098#post-111042 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 22:38:34 +0000 dvo4fun 111042@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>or the kbyoard </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=39098#post-111001 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 15:59:51 +0000 dvo4fun 111001@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I'm reckoning that if it was a model boating lake they might have been confused by the 'scale' issue.
