proper stowage of a fire extinguisher

Pikey · May 29, 2007

This is why you should make sure your extinguishers stored properly, and that the pin can't come out of the handle.

1 6Kg powder exting going off in rear of disco makes a lot of dust. the blue patch on the road is where the dust settled as it poured out the back of the disco.

Spent 3 hr's cleaning it all out. it really does get everywhere. Started engine up to go out in it and got a face full of powder as the fan kicked in and blew a load of dust out of the vents.

Nah got a proper lamping torch for that. That's the only fully legal offensive weapon you can get in the UK. ask any policeman.

There is always' my favorite a mechanical pencil or nice metal pen.
Evan a plastic Bic in the right place will persuade them to go away.

Ps

I also miss my old 8800 phone some time

A properly folded newspaper (aka the Millwall Brick) is quite good in a squeeze too but it has to be a broadsheet for maximum effect.

Nice one! brings back memorys of a a ford galaxy I worked on a few years back,some pikey smashed the window,knicked the stereo and then went through the glovebox finding the fire extinguisher which the decided to set off inside the vehicle.Took a good few hours of cleaning i can tell you!

No it was broad daylight and I set it off myself accidently. The pikey link is a bit tenuous.

oops, the comment was addressed to wreckhunter, implying that the pikey who broke in to his galaxy might be the owner of the pikey torch seen in the pictures. Seem to spend all my time being misunderstood !
