Wanted Jerry Cans etc

[Em L]

Hi All

I have a list of things I need to buy and am finding some hard to come by or they're really expensive, if anyone knows where I could buy any of this stuff cheap-ish that'd be great. I need:

Jerry Cans
Jet Washer
Hedge Trimmer
Overalls
Ear defenders
Petrol strimmer
Petrol Lawnmower

I'd be grateful for any help at all here, thanks!

If you find all this, do you fancy doing my garden for me?

i have a petrol mower going cheap just give me chance to give it a service as been sat in the garden a while. Other stuff try gumtree and ebay. But avoid cheap petrol strimmers the spools seem to melt easy and it gets exspensive at £20 a go.

Tek - if you're serious, yes! Reasonable rates

mjkrs2k - how cheap is cheap

My garden currently looks like downtown Khandahar, what started as a simple pond extension has now decimated most of my garden! Unfortunately every time I have a few hours spare it rains

It's taken a while, but two 20l "army style metal" jerry cans for sale in today's Newsletter.

£15 each or £25 for the pair.

I missed this. Jerry cans on the tool stall in the market - plastic, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Can't remember the price, but in various sizes. Worth thinking of different colours for four- and two-stroke.

Good call.

I bought a basic jet washer from B&Q a couple of years back about £25 if memory serves. No whistles, no bells but plenty powerful enough for 99% of jobs.

If you can persuade people to put up with it smelling like the Gents' at Newmarket, then water the area to be jet-washed with a Jeyes Fluid solution a few days before the jetting is to occur - makes quite a difference - and, if the slabs are edged in gravel, then an upside-down piece of plastic guttering with your foot on it, held down over the gravel, makes it possible to clean right up to the edge without spraying stones everywhere.
