You can get outdoor battery lights. The battery is concealed in a waterproof container. I think you can get lights that are run off 3 X D batteries (as opposed to AA) and so they're brighter/last longer.Ahh thanks but we rent so not an option, hence looking for creative ways to do it.
You're best looking at a shop that specialises in lights/Christmas goods as opposed to a high street store, they will have more choice (albeit, more expensive).
I hate the Christmas markets now.Well Manchester was absolute manic yesterday . Me and my husband went For a night away we had evening plans anyway but thought we would do a bit of Christmas shopping and then go to the markets. We lasted all of 15 mins in the Christmas markets it was just wild.
I started going over 15 years ago, I was able to get a cheap hotel and it was always really quiet. So much so, that it was one of my Christmas traditions. I would actually buy things from the little stalls.
Suddenly one year, it was absolute carnage. Its become more of a 'drinking/social' experience than a shopping one. Its a shame really, because you can't walk around the little stalls due to the sheer amount of people. Its hideous.
