solid silver ran leads from a hook up, if we know how long that is, and add 10 metres, I can make up a lead.... and pat test it ( ) that'll get near the marquee.....

or as said, 2 leisure batteries in series and a charger would do at the other.....

or from the toilet block, just a 20m lead would do........

the leads are easy, I have about 75m of blue arctic cable on the van, I have a 16A ceeform plug.... and I'm sure in the next 11 months I can sort a waterproof socket

this sounds like a really great idea to give a taste for those people who are unable to get there - but once the word gets out about how good this year was we may run out of room - compair last years posts about the bash to this years!!!! are we going to get too popular.

Yeah I'd be gutted if I had to go for the whole thing yknow Good idea, how easy would it be to get hold of a mast do you think? Have got some brackets that should do it.

This sounds great John, maybe if it was ok to 'pat test' any other equipment used would that be possible if it's needed that is? Maybe the best option would be to go for one from a hookup to get near the marquee like you say, you're right better satisfy those 2 chaps elf and safety or there'll be bother

How tall would we need it? would a scaffold pole with a bunch of guy ropes do it?

Sounds ideal, now who's having work done to their house round here?

We've currently got a bunch of scaffolding round three sides of our house - I'm sure they wouldn't miss a few pieces

Or you could nip round to the Spread Eagle and whip a few of theirs

Wow Muz, you must be psychic cos I was just thinking of asking you

Think if you took the spread eagle's it might fall down, but my neighbour's just been having their house repointed
