It's the early 1980s & rookie fireman Malcolm Castle is set to take on the biggest challenge of his life. After three years bouncing around in the back of the country fire-engine he's about to start driving it! At just 22-years-old
- less than half the age of many of his colleagues
- he's set to thunder through the narrow streets of one of England's most beautiful medieval towns & speed out across the glorious Shropshire countryside. But while his responsibilities are changing fast almost everything else in Malcolm's life stays the same. Despite facing his fair share of car accidents house & farm fires he still seems to spend an awful lot of time answering a string of unlikely & unexpected emergency calls. He rescues shortsighted dogs from frozen lakes newborn lambs from flooded golf-courses a pair of angry cows from a busy dual carriageway
- & even a hot-footed hamster from a burning cage. Backed up by a heartwarming cast of fellow firemen Malcolm's enthusiasm for his job & his life are as infectious as ever. So whether it is cats up trees or trees on cars follow Malcolm as he takes to the wheel for another crazy year in the country fire brigade. Told with the same gentle humour as his first book ALL FIRED UP & full of even more extraordinary real-life anecdotes Shropshire's longest-serving fireman is back
- a little older a little wiser & even more convinced he has the best job in the world.
