Outdoor tree lights

Post by CaptainKirk » Fri Dec 03, 2021 2:29 pm

As this is the font of all knowledge - can anyone recommend a place for heavy duty lights for an external Christmas tree??

There's some emergency workers that might lend you some big blue lights.

What do you mean by "heavy duty?" As far as I know we can only buy LEDs these days.

Steven Smith Garden Centre in Otley sell shedloads of Christmas lights. Some of them must be outdoor.

But more to the point, their cream teas are worth the ride out to Otley on a sunny weekend. I doubt you'll get better (or bigger) scones.

Aldi, Yorkshire Trading both have a good selection.

dsr - talking of scones if you ever get over to Skipton, pop into “The Three Sheep” tea room, it’s in middle row on the High Street. I think you’d like them.
