History of Character: I was at the training centre, and had just finished doing my CPR taining character for the basic life support course. As I was walking back I noticed noticed a pile of dummies, neatly stacked, looking very new. I asked "what were they used for?" and "who manufactured them?". The answers were that they were used in BA training in the fire house and manufactured by a company in Wales called Ruthlee. Seeing an opportunity here for another character, I wrote off to Ruthlee, who very kindly offered to make me a suit. Below are pictures sets of me in the costume during various training exercises and shows.
