I find the pole just dips down between the spikes anyway, they just bend a bit either side

they are quite dense so I dont think the pole or gooseneck will be able to just fit into the gaps, Luke

double up on your goose neck (wintecs £2.93?)

brings the pole away enough to go to the bottom whith out touching the prongs

I took your kind help and advice onboard Jerry, thank you very much for helping but with my gooseneck I cant add one of those ones you suggested from Wintecs. Just looking for more suggestions from different people, but thank you for your advice. Usually your suggestion would have worked but with the pole I'm using I cant do that unfortunately, :) Luke
