jonno 357 Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 Use the retractable washing line poles from Argos £3.99 each. Just cut the ends off at an angle to make the sharp enough to stick in the ground Jonno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apbuild Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 I use adjustable washing line poles from my local hardware store. They even have exactly the same clip on the top as pro poles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferretmanabu Posted July 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 Went down to Asda today. Hide poles are only 3 quid each. Same ones as in argos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Maiden Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Here's a good idea from my mate Sam Farrow. Buy a pack of 5 dark green, tall, electric fence poles from your local agriculture/farmers store. I bought some today for only £9.80 for 5 ! They have metal spikes, foot pushers and loads of attaching hooks. Another great idea from Sam Farrow (hung like a marrow ! or is that hung like a sparrow ! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
