Triangle Tree Lights

Posted by Michael Solomon Williams on November 11, 2024 at 7:20pm in Community News, Info, Issues

Hi All,

I know we may be waiting for emerging plans for a possible new Residents Association in the absence of any continuation/revival of the PGRA. Meanwhile, it's a bit sad (and dark) with no fairy lights on the Triangle trees as they used to have. Having asked around a bit, apparently the old sets might be worn out now, but great if they aren't and somebody has them? Otherwise I'd be happy to buy a couple of long sets and batteries and light up the main tree or both trees, if anyone could help with a large ladder? Not too expensive, but even better if people are happy to chip in.

Do let me know. More than happy to get the lights and battery, get up a ladder, help/lead with fixing etc.

Thanks,

Michael

Update: in the absence of any other action, I'll probably buy a 40m set for the main tree, for about £30, I think, and put up over the next week or so. Any help financial or practical welcome!

  Happy to make a contribution, but can I suggest solar lights rather than battery powered ones.

  Thanks, Susie!
  
  Do you know any solar which work well? I've found that the more affordable solar tend to be pretty ropey, but great if there are good ones you or other know of?
  
  I think the old PGRA sets were pretty extensive and pricey. I was thinking max £40ish for really big sets, though more people chipping in, the better!

  Michael I'm happy to do some research into this so we get a set that really last. Will be in touch pronto!
