So, it has come to this! In light (chuckle) of forum custom, and as a thank you and mark of respect to old time members, and a welcome to new ones, I hereby announce a giveaway in celebration of my upcoming 999th post (:P @ Lumatic)

Any and all members are invited to post herein, and I wish you all the best of luck

here are the rules:

1: You must be a member of BLF before the final draw takes place.

2: Any Vogon posting items of poetry will be immediately disqualified.

3: Feel free to post something amusing and lighthearted (and uncontroversial)

4: Pictures of cute fluffy kittens etc will attract demerit points in a scientifically calculated inverse ratio to cuteness.

5. Entries will remain open until I reach 999 posts, at which time I will draw the lucky winners names from eddies in the space time continuum

6. Eddy himself is therefore not eligible to enter

7. Please state your country of origin if it is not in your details.*

There may be multiple draws of assorted useful and useless junk, prizes TBA.***

• I originally intended to send out a couple of my personal lights, but the cost of postage is almost the same as buying a new light and having it delivered direct from the webstore.

So here is what I have decided.

I will have 2 draws, one for Aussies and one for the rest of the world.

Each winner will have a choice of options on a Convoy M2 or S3 from FastTech OR a Xiaozhi from Fancy Flashlights.

The M2, S3 and Xiaozhi have been by far my favourite small lights of recent months, and I want to share the goodness.

Post away! (images of cute things not mandatory)***

*Since my Aussie brothers tend to miss out on a lot here, and due to our exorbitant international postage rates, I may allocate some special items for true blue ockers only.
