A device (1) comprising: a base unit (2); an attachment means (15), connected to the base unit, which can be used to attach the base unit (2) releasably to a user's clothing; a leash arrangement comprising a flexible leash (5) element which may be extended from, and retracted into, the base unit (2); and a holder attached to the leash element (5), the holder (9) being operable to grip and release at least one type of cigarette lighter (25,26,27), wherein: the holder (9) comprises first and second arms (11) which protrude away from a central point and are deflected towards one another to present generally opposed gripping surfaces (13); the arms (11) are formed from a resilient material, allowing the arms (11) to deflect to allow a cigarette lighter (25,26,27) to be placed between the arms (11), so the arms (11) will then exert a gripping force on the lighter (25,26,27); and an adjustment arrangement (14) is provided to allow a user to adjust the distance between the gripping surfaces (12) when the holder (9) is in an undisturbed state.

The small game carriage includes an elongated tube having an inner diameter at least the size of the head of small game to be carried. An elongated slot, running parallel to the longitude of the tube, is formed through the wall of the tube. The width of the slot is wide enough to accommodate the neck of small game to be carried, but is too small for the head of the taken game to pass radially through the slot. The slot has a terminus near the end of the tube to stop small game from sliding out the bottom of the small game carrier and prevent spreading of the slot near the bottom of the tube. A reinforcing ring may be used near the top of the tube to reduce spreading of the slot near the top of the tube. Means, preferably in the form of a belt clip, is provided to removably attach the small game carrier to the clothing of the user, thereby providing for hands free carriage of a number of small animals with head disposed in the tube, neck disposed in slot and body disposed extending outside of tube and projecting away from wearer's body.

This invention in provides an a method to attach a handle to a generally rounded shipping container by attaching each end of a handle to opposite ends of a generally rounded shipping container to form a handle assembly made of a plurality of end cap units, each of the plurality of end cap units having an internal partition with a slit configured to retain a buckle, wherein the buckle is connected to a handle. This invention also provides an assembly made of plurality of retaining tabs each with a slit configured to retain one side of a handle and the handle connected to said plurality of retaining tabs and a plurality caps configured to retain said plurality of retaining tabs to affix a handle to said shipping container. The assembly, in an exemplary embodiment, can include a retaining tab made of a plurality of generally flat first retaining element and generally flat second retaining element.
