Picked up a bunch of these after a tip-off here from the Niagara club: (thanks again guys !)

They were well received on Tuesday when the Detroit club met [8D] - they also come with their own stands, which is useful if like us you are meeting indoors over the winter .

They are maybe a little on the short side at 17", but $1.27 each and $10 shipping for a box of 20 I don't think you can argue with them - they are certainly better looking than the 2ft ones from 'Bed Bath & Beyond' we were using this summer [8D]
