Thought I had added this pic, but didn't.
Here it is with it's winter rope light right up to wrapping the spears. I'm hoping for a milder winter, but will be re-covering the parasol this weekend just in case we get snow events

They were only switched on the warm the rope making it easier to bend. Not been on again since the pic was taken.cordyman wrote:Dave Brown wrote:Thought I had added this pic, but didn't.
