They're a bit to heavy for that! (I wouldn't like to carry 10 of them plus a tent any distance.)

I did recently discover why the sticks that my parents/grandparents used to support chrysanthemums in the garden were (a) tapered and (b) had a small screw about halfway up; It also made me _very_ annoyed because I had been looking for some for a very long time: the staff for Flags, Signalling, Small! The sticks were long gone, but I found a stock of new ones at the War & Peace show this year, so was well pleased. (I already had the white with blue stripe flags to fit them.)

Chris.
