Amazing the things you think of in a crisis. It's called improvisation :DPS: I think our stopcock is under the sink - must check!

Anyone else have creative ideas for coal storage in their gardens as �£65 to �£100 for a metal or plastic ugly box in the garden seems a bit much for storage. Especially when you think B&Q etc do cheap sheds for around the same price!!!
