Water Butt

I want a water butt to collect the rainwater from my garage roof which has guttering but it simply drains to a concrete floor on the outside of the garage with nowhere to go.

I had moved the pipe round so it goes onto a raised bed, but it's backlogged with water, so now have the original problem.

A water butt would solve this, but theyre not cheap;

After doing a search for "water butts", I found loads of entrys from people on the site, and also that local councils offer subsidised water butts, and compost bins.

my local council site, offers compost bins for £8, haven't found the water butts yet mind.
