    LOL. You came on the internet looking for an answer and I gave it to you - not google. HSS are the best suppliers of cherry pickers in town and you snapped back with a cranky reply? Happy flipping christmas to you Mr. Scroogey-pants...

    The 'Thanks' button is over there on the right--->

    Press it or the evil knob-goblins will throw you out of the cherry picker.

    Best do it in the evening, after the community wardens have finished work, or they might come asking for your permit / safety docs / whatever.

    (I kid you not!)

    There should be a carbon tax on chrismas lights seeing as how they are ruining the planet. :rolleyes:


    Joking of course - the government should stick their carbon tax up their hole.....sideways!

    I assure you that my logic was sound: nothing is bound to bring a smile to peoples' faces faster than the thought of a bunch of internet nerds in the nip :)

    actually the whole world does revolve around google.
    If google shutdown society would cease to function as we know it.
    Businesses would fall and crumble, free porn would be much harder to come by without the aid of google image search. haha!!
