Phew a 35m run for the switching wires is asking for trouble as the wires are bound to pick-up noise as well as suffering a voltage drop from one end to the other.

I ran a CAT cable out to my garage then used a cheap wireless router to create a WiFi access point.

Or you could use a WiFi over mains wiring pair of units to get WiFi to the garage.

Once you've got WiFi there you can do all sorts of things... like rigging-up an internet radio to listen to music whilst you are working.
