Thanks all - I'll let you know prior to our inaugral lighting up ceremony (Thu 10.00pm, dress = casual, but bring flame proof vest and fire extinguisher).

I wouldn't want to get a power hungry reputation though, otherwise the "Gods of Power" (Smokie, GAB, Pope & other movers & shakers) would always be unplugging me first from the bog block sockets!!

I thought it was a bit of a ritaul last year sending someone down each time the power went out - kind of like a power committee to agree who's cable was hottest...

If your on MB search me out as I can offer my services as a xmas light professional. I always have my light fixing tools with me and can supply examples of my work if required.

Cheers

Steve, that looks like the back of Smokies stereo/pc set up last year.

Stu the picture you did not show were the 16 fire engines that turned up after the inagural turn on. ;D

Be careful not to be dismiss with the airport considering all planes landing during this week :D

Mr Toad · March 01, 2005, 11:45:45 AM

Good point Gilles. Perhaps one day a plane will try and land on MB campsite with all those lights!!

Hmmm...like the helicopter last year eh? :)

Mr Toad · March 01, 2005, 09:03:45 PM

Smokie - I faced a court marshal for deriliction of duty back in Blightly last year from my team after the infamous MB "chopper" disaster! ie letting the team marquee escape from my control and shoot up 5m vertically in the air...

The verdict (depite my personal general drunkeness and incompetance) was a mistral rather than the chopper hit us. We saw one of them on Houx a few years back - I had just never realised how powerful they were...be warned, buy extra guy ropes if the sun shines!! :o
