It's bad enough doing something daft like that, but to do it in front of an audience is a killer!! I feel your pain bud!

i did it a few weeks ago, but it was 3 in the morning, manouvering it into the drive trying not to wake the neighbors up and nobody saw apart from the girlfriend and it fell on the grass so no scratching etc. so not too bad but still embarrasing
as for the clips, i just used cable ties
