Hi all,
Lovely sunny day and all that and even though I have a corporate function for 40...yes only 40 people tonight (which I'm not looking forward to that much to be honest), I am grinning from ear to ear.
Why?
I had a little flutter last night on the online casino and won!!
I spent £400 (rather stupidly as I'm not a big gambler) and I won...wait for it........£8320 !!!
I have decided to spend £1000 of it on some new lights so what do you reckon? I wouldn't mind the purelight double lazer pack and that's only £250-ish so what else do you think?
Thanks in advance!
Gary

Hi Shakermaker,
I'm no expert on lights, so I'll let others make suggestions on that front, but I just wanted to say congratulations on your big win!
...although I wouldn't make a habit of it (gambling, not winning!)

Thanks guys! I've never won that much before so I nearly had a heart attack when it flashed up that I had won. I've had a butchers at the Dynarolls and they look pretty good. I think I may go for them plus the purelight double lazer pack and then maybe something else.

please dont buy moodbars.
stick 5k of it in a decent bank account to use it when you need it, but remember you will never need mood bars.
well done.
if you really want to treat yourself go for a giant mirror ball. or moving heads. or decent scanners.

Congrats... Wish i was that lucky!
As for lighting you can Buy my special lightweight lighting for your rig - really are one of a kind (well 4 of a kind)... for the money they are classy, stylish, great colours and gobos all in a compact case with a small controller and bright enough for most weddings and other functions...
You can have 4 of them for £8,000 :P

Really? Not up to expectations? Or just the effect itself? I really fancy one for a centrepiece.

Low risk, don't be mad, you'll never make money that way.
I can rec some good shares to place some money, high risk big return.
Keep doing me well;)

Depends if you can afford to lose the hard-won cash or not.
Just had a case here in NZ of a large financial corporate that everyone thought was safe as houses going bankrupt - creditors/shareholders lucky if they are getting 25c in the dollar of their original investment.

oh yeah, that's the name of the game though, like i say high risk, potential high return. Need to do lots of research first mind.
Only ever bet or invest what you can afford to lose.
