getting to know the real cute corporal...

I only thought there was European and American rules, now there's French rules!

Obviously there's pub rules too which is just a random mix. I was playing this lad from the pub team the other day, he got really angry and started shouting at his girlfriend 'cos I beat him 4 games out of 5. I just sat down and laughed, I thought he was going to fight me but he walked out with his lass in tow.

That's why you don't put your pool cue down straight away, it's a handy weapon.
 
I can't say I've ever done that. They normally look like they've been beaten with a pool cue when I've finished. Admittedly, I've only done it once.

He started it!
 
He did actually start it. He was one of those that get drunk and think they're the biggest man on earth. The pool cue sure showed him otherwise.

Another handy weapon is the backs of chairs (only certain ones), you can pull the top off then pull out one of the wooden bar things. Small and heavy, very handy. Ash trays work too.
 

What you could try is a MEB (I forgot what the "M" stands for, but I know the two other letters are for "Extendable Baton"). It's very useful for Security Officers and Private Investigators. There is different sizes from 16 inches up to 31 inches. Personnally, I got a 21 inches MEB. Very effective and handy.

I don't know for the UK, but in Canada, you need a licence to buy one.

Good stuff. Over here in Ansbach, Germany the Polizie have something similar but it is an electronic wand that moves back and forth making it less effort for the Polizie to hit you with. We call it a Turk Beater!
 
Hmmm... I think I know what you're talking about... Unfortunatelly, it's illegal in Canada. The lone MEBs allowed here are the "non-mechanized" (without springs) ones. Some Canadian went to US to buy MEBs but they were seized at the border when they came back because of that. They did bought "mechanized" MEBs.

Are you sure ?

They must have taken a course on how to use them (in that case they got the licence). Because even cops have to take courses regularly for the MEB and the PR-24. What's the difference ? Look below...

Well yeah, we have to be trained with them Maestro. They don't just toss one to you and say "Have at 'er!".

We use the extendables (I've never heard the term MEB before. ). They're pretty nifty little rigs, I must say. I haven't done boarding party stuff in about two years though.
