    Re: Tonight's headtorcher

    I did my first headtorcher of the season last night; maybe 3 or 4 miles up and round the hill out back.

    I think it was probably the shadow of a boulder moving as my head torch moved in relation to it but, if not, me and Harry saw a huge black, stooping animal run across our path last night . What made the hairs on my neck tingle a bit is that Harry stopped and started growling too!

    Spooky.

    They are really good bits of kit, the Alpkit headtorches. Well made, sturdy, and i like the extra light on the battery pack. I use one for camping, and a LED Lenser for night runs.

    Two weeks with spot on stile selections. How long will it last?

    Although I can't wash the cow pat smell off my hands. What does that mean?
