Let there be Light!

I passed by Stuart at the greengrocer's this morning as he was bringing boxes of veg out to put on his outside shelves. Over the top of the shelves, he's rigged up an ingenious arrangement of lights inside half a tube of bamboo.
"It gets dark about four o-clock now," he said, "and the street lights don't go on then, and the Christmas lights are useless, so no-one can see that I'm open."

That is a good idea!

Credit for Stuart's lights must go to Andrew who lives next door to Castle Greengrocers as he is the chap you designed and made them. He has made several interesting lights and has a small showroom in his house.

Is he the chap who made the fairy light reindeer, too?
