Don't forget to get the stand for the water butt as well and double check the shape and size of the space you are putting it in. We recently won one, and it's a completely different shape to our existing one, and takes up a lot more space! Also make sure it's going on a solid base.

Make sure the water butt doesn’t leak 🤣. Sorry.

Whether the stand is included in the price or you need to buy it separately. I've come across both methods of pricing. As you'll know, it needs to be sited sufficiently high for you to be able to fit a watering can underneath the tap. And a well-fitting lid to prevent critters falling in.
2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.
2) To read 50 books (12/50) 3) The Re-Shrinking of Foxgloves 8.1kg/30kg
Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!0 -
Cheers @foxgloves especially for the kind 'as you know' 😁 It seems to meet all those criteria and I'm keen on it being collapsible so if I've made a dreadful misjudgement it can easily be put in a corner and never spoken of again. Also quite feeling the levels gauge on the side so you can be
