Needing a water butt due to the water supply on our allotments being turned off in September, I tried to buy one from my local water company (Anglian); not a prayer, but from previous dealings with them, I should have known better anyway; if you live in Lincolnshire you have to buy them your local council; the cost, around £35. I ended up buying one from Wilkinsons; the price; £19 for 190 litre capacity.
