ha ha... I remember when they were all the rage in the 20 years ago (used to buy be able to buy the bulbs at Granny May's) actually you could go all out and paint the walls black then do space designs on the walls with fluoro paint for the ultimate trip down 80's pinnie parlour nostalgia :D

There is method in my madness tony.   Older ones are closer to the bar and further away from the door where everyone will be brushing past plus if Marathon is tucked away into that corner you wont be able to see it beautiful legs  ^^^

Shed looks great! How good is that Gorgar! Brilliant! The Jungle Princess looks great too!
I can just imagine how good it will all look and I bet you are excited!

Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, I'm sure the UV tubes would drive the camera's auto white balance & exposure sensors crazy, to be honest I've never shot under total UV lighting, though I've got a gig on Saturday shooting a promo for some new dance club in the city (ear plug music for me), I'll have to try some experimental shots under their UV lights cause now I'm curious!
