Ode to Kawalski

[Mr T.]

Dudes,

I was clearing some stuff from the floor in my home office and came across the Kawalski 620 torch I bought at the Brum Dive Show las October - like a tw*t I'd completely forgotten I had it.

Any way, I've just got her out of the box to charge her for the gig at the weekend and I turned her on. Whoosh!! She came on straight a way - I'm not saying she's bright, but I'm taking in-coming ship-to-shore signals from passing freighters!!

Charges in 80 minutes flat!! Happy days; my UK D-4 takes hours, literally. Yes, the Brenster is a moderately happy chappy at time of going to press.

You forgot you bought a torch. Bleedin' 'ell boy, you must have more money than sense.

He does... this is a guy who once told me that he'd forgotten he was going to the Maldives until the tickets arrived.... makes me wanna puke it does... mutter mutter whinge whine....

[peter k]

I wonder If he could see his way clear to forgetting that he bought me tickets to go to the Galapagos Islands. I must admit I never thought i'd meet a rich Yorkshireman, but I think I just have. There is a phrase from a film that springs to mind-"You lucky, lucky bastard. They only hung me the right way up yesterday".
Forgot he'd bought a torch. Hmmphh indeed.

Steady Peter: me, a Yorky?? People have been sent to bed with no supper for considerably less mate! ;)

[peter k]

God you're right Bren. My most humble apologies, but even more unbelievable is a rich Mancunian. I think I've figured out where you get you're money from though; Hanging with your homies in Mosside, smokin' some punk ass mother-fu**er with an Uzi over a crack deal went bad. Word up. Peace Brother.

[Mr T.]

That'd be about right Pete, but keep it dark mate, eh? I don't want me bitches finding out! I've got me 'ghetto-cred' to think of ;)

Later dude.

Just atip Bren throw it swtched on in a bucket of water and let it run down then charge it up again ....repeat 3 to 4 times. That way you get a longer burnig time first time you use it on a dive as Nicads will reach the full capacity after a few charges when new.And dont foget where you put the bucket.:-))
Regards
Michael

Hi Peter, I have been in Yorkshire its a very big county and strangely enough I covert a little of it, if you look at the land between Northallerton and Selby going to the East coast any Highland Laird would think he was in paradise. I consider myself well travelled and though I have been in other parts of Wales this is better. Rather than rebuilding Adrians garden fence and charging a toll how about we invade York this Summer.  If things haven't changed to much there should be plenty of pork and real ale. I am also told there are even some good dive shops near by.  The natives speak a little strangely (they don't talk tidy) but are very friendly and easy to get along with, I once thought I met a bad one, but I was in error as I am told all the bad ones are immigrants from Lancashire.

Northallertons about 15 mins from my house... nice place, although spending the night in the local nick wasn't the best of experiences...
