Yes, Sorry that should have read VMR and other relevant authorities and boats in the area, as for Dumping them over the side, not going to happen, I bought the damned things so I'm going to get my monies worth out of them, one way or another, and I do not care what some wowsers might have to say about it, as there are to many nanny laws in life as it is that try to take all the fun out of life, I refuse to impose on myself laws that the immorally unjust have as yet not got around to imposing on me by legistration or regulation just to protect some incompetent half-wit that natural selection would erase from the gene pool and improve the human race except that a bunch of bleeding hearts impose laws on those of us that are neither incompetent nor so stupid that we need our hands held though out our lives


You get you money's worth out of them by not needing to use them.

It shouldn't be the legislation about firing off false flares that bothers you, its the potential for some concerned people in the community that respond to flare sightings and come looking for you, thinking that you're in the **** that you should worry about.

But then again only an incompetent half-wit that natural selection would erase from the gene need only carry flares, I mean a good sailor need not carry flares or safety gear because they're plenty smart enough and nothing goes wrong, and as result don't need their hand held through life.

Well this kind of ridiculous statement certainly shows which side of the fence you fall over doesn't it, any intelligent person takes as much precautions as are necessary and does not need to be told to do so by a bunch of idiots that probably would not be allowed entry into a sensible persons home, frankly I couldn't care less what people like you have to say, I just like pointing out to others how foolish you are when you make comments such as the one made above. thank you for your time, and in future please feel free to do as you please. (note the full stop actually worked this time, sometimes I don't hit a button hard enough for it to register and really if you need a full stop to tell you that a sentence is finished then I feel sorry for you).

I'm sure the local fire brigade will take out of date flares for disposal

Thanks Captainyanti.. My old man said his RFB takes flares and disposes of them in the fires. Not sure about parachute flares.. They may still be a bit interesting.

Your probably right SandS. I absolutely hated English in school, mainly because I had no respect for the weakling male teachers I always seemed to be lumbered with, they all seemed to be struggling to control the class and we took full advantage of the fact. I'm still surprised to this day that I passed my HSC, having been taught by a bunch of clowns who were proof that, those that can do, those that can't teach, I believe all teachers should be made to do at least two years working in the real world before they are allowed anywhere near a classroom, just to erase the ivory tower mindset that they all seem to have acquired through lack of any real world experience.
