Good points Jon - if you think it is better to drop the heavy array and go for a boominator design then i am cool, what is holding me back is lack of cashish. It (boominator) is well-matured and tested, and will sound awesome.
The lepai was on my radar too - is it coming from HK?
There is a seller on Ebay with used 30-42 AH SLA leisure batteries for 15-20 quid + delivery. They seem to be popular and have probably come out of UPSs or similar?
I think elguapo has a trailer sitting around that we could use as a temporary measure.
BTW, there is this for sale on gumtree for 50 squid. - instant 8 hour PA!
We can pass it on to a friendly busker (aufbruch?) if it becomes obsolete. It has a basic EQ
I know that there is an ideal sound system out there to be constructed carefully out of 12mm plywood + the right matched drivers + tweeters + a sweet custom trailer blah, blah... However, looking at the weather this week, I would suggest to get something rigged up sooner, and make mark II the perfect system, and have fun with making it.

Seriously, go look at the weather.
