blooming black tape!! (show numbers)

[trickivicki]

Hi All,

Curse of the black tape/ ribbon/ string thing!

Does anyone else get in a real muddle with these *******?

I saw someone today with a funky looking little belt thing with little clips on to hold the number on instead.

Any idea where I could acquire such a thing?

If its showing showing then the clips are not uses widely. Get yourself a bit of thin black elastic and make a loop in each end, the loops sit over one of the jacket buttons, it means you can take off your jacket between classes etc

I never bother with the nasty tape they supply at shows. Personally would give clips a miss too.
Do yourself a favour and get some plaiting thread, or thin elastic thread.

This, exactly, looks much neater, no flappy ends, nice and flexible, and cheap!
