Thank you for reading this!
We have just moved into our bungalow. Never had lights upside before. Our neighbour always ran his along our semi detached houses.
We have a detached now. It consists of a length of guttering, then an upside down V shape canopy then more guttering.
Understand how you fix them to guttering but can't see how to attach to 'v ' shape as it's brick and roof tiles.

Secondly are we better going with icicle or string lights.

Thirdly please can you recommend where to buy them. Amazon ones seem to have very mixed reviews and some are old reviews.

You can try sticking cable ties to the tiles with silicone paste. That seems to work on rough surfaces. Otherwise, for smooth surfaces Command Clips are great (buy them from Amazon).
