    Thats the one. What do you mean, strictly speaking not true Zed?

    The law states it's got to be a metal container not exceeding 10l and you can have two of them. Or a later law states it's a plastic container not exceeding 5l and only one of them. Or both at the same time. But both laws only deal with storage. Strictly speaking, you could transport petrol around in carrier bags and it wouldn't be illegal.

    Just yet another loophole in the wonderful legal system of ours. :rolleyes:

    I'm not sure if it would. Those are the laws dealing with purchasers of petrol. Because you'd be licensed by the local authority, you are a seller of petrol, they may have put in additional clauses - like noise etc. And one of those might be the "secure containers" bit. You'd have to look *really* deeply into it.
