Wouldnt really cut the mustard if I didnt have anything to attach it to and wanted to be more than 20cm off the ground.

Anyway ended up getting this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Slik-Sprint-Mini-II-Tripod/dp/B000Y095OS/1

With this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Manfrotto-494RC2-Ball-Friction-Control/dp/tech-data/B002N5CV8Y/ref=de_a_smtd

Worked really well, was so light I could even keep it attached to the camera, with it around my neck, and also worked as a good stabiliser with two legs resting on the top of my trousers (tripod legs obviously not extended)
