Bush Tucker Man:
Would they??

ASP Throwing for 'newbies'

Boggert:
That's mint, Have heard it done but never been involved... honest! :^o

I remember once out on patrol with a probationer, she was young, fit and keen. We came around a corner to see two suspects I knew well pushing 2 bikes with 2 white bags containing railway cuplings they had just nicked for scrap. As they saw us the dropped the bikes and bags and jumped through the hedge. My colleague was out the van like lightening and running down the road and ran right past them. I could see both suspects hidden under a tree so I got them to come out which they did with a cheerful "hello Mate" while my colleague was still running so I waited to see how long she would realise I had them. It was a good 20 seconds. By that time we were in stitches! I have never seen 2 suspects laughing while being cuffed for theft!

Unfortunately such jolly japes are no longer allowed, as it could be seen as a form of bullying and demeaning. If someone is caught doing such a thing, it would involve an intensive session of bean bag sitting, weeping and discussion of how the person feels about it.

However................

I have to say I have never thrown my asp, as much as I would like to, as I think they are a useless piece of crap.
When me previous force were issued the PR24 side handled baton, competitions would take place, unofficially of course, to see how quickly they could be drawn from the holster and put into the ready position. Not particularly amusing, but it was fairly easy to work out who wasn't holding the 'trumble knob' (I kid yee not!) tight enough, as it went sailing across the room.
This progressed to a 'quick draw' test to see who could draw the baton and knock an object out of the air. This involved throwing any object to hand, (an old tin can, plastic milk bottle, inspector) into the air and hitting it.
This went all very well, until a permenant marker pen was thrown, and then hit, spraying indelible ink over everyone and every thing in the room.
Apparently the excuse ran something along the lines of "Well Sarge, the pen must have left near the radiator, and got hot and expanded, and well, sort of blew up, if you know what I mean, sort of"
