I suppose that this sort of runs off of the hose pipe ban thread. I already have a couple up the allotment but am after a few more. More for home really so I thought that I'd turn to the wonders of Dover Forum to see whether you can shed any light on them for me. I don't even mind if they are the massive blue/green thick plastic drums. All you have to do is just saw the tops off and turn it upside down to make the lid.
Cheers people !!

No 'unwanted' wheelie bins around? Scrap yards for discarded attic tanks? Is there no dump-corner near the docks where 'stuff' is to be found?

Mark.
I have one going if you want it.
It Has a very minuscule Crack in the bottom of it butt I'm sure it can be repaired. It also has a tap.
If you want it let me know or it will be up the tip by next week.

My lovely neighbour has just installed mine in the front of the house by tapping into his down pipe as we have not got one.
Mine was from B&Q £24.99 looks just like Colin's in post#8, £2 more but no postage to pay.
