800? Pah. This is more like the one the numpty opposite me had

Have been blinded from 250 yards plus by some twit on the other side of a carp lake. He'd got some huge 5 beam LED head torch. Mentioned it to the bailiff who said 'yeh, good ain't they? He's getting me one!' oh dear. Also surprised this summer by the phenomena of the carper afraid of the dark...
