Free maglight

[Andrew_Culture]

We've had this maglight for years, so long in fact that the years we've let it sit in the cupboard have given the batteries the opportunity to leak. I hate chucking stuff out that is nicely engineered and just needs a little love to live, but the advent of CREE torches have made our requirement for such a big torch redundant. Although rather worryingly my wife pointed out that you can't bash someone over the head so effectively with a CREE.

So who would like a free maglight that needs a little internal clean?



I'll even post it the right way up.

Shouting. Shouting and effeminately shaking my fist at it in the style of a 1950s sitcom villain.

I've still got the exact same torch at the side of the bed.

So would you poke them with it or wait for them to laugh at you?
Why not use a real one that puts some fear into them?

Cos i know how to use it and less likely to get arrested myself if i do twat someone with it, or just get the 6 foot staff out.. that would be fun.

If it's going spare we always have need of torches. The bigger the better ... why? ... my youngest has a tendency to lost small ones.
