Go to wilkinsons, buy a bucket of "Fat Balls" to feed the birds - the buckets they come in are ideal and have a snap-on lid and carrying handle.
 
I was just gonna google "fat balls" but remembered I'm at work lol.

I think the oblong bucket I use was from jointing compound used by cable layers.
 
just been there web site and they dont have the oblong one just the round one looks a bit small to get my tubs inside of it

need oblong one like i see people carring

yeah but dont think they are so hight the ones ive seen people use a lad says he got one off metre plus(who read and install gas & elec meters) and some people are saying there are decorators buckets
 
I've seen them on the sites mate. There Def to do with electrics or gas cables. Walked past the lads in my street the other day digging the ground to get to the cables and them buckets were there. They're white with a black lid, longer and not as tall. I've got 2 but no more.
 
thanx Cod,cod,cod! yeah thats the ones i need one as sick of my bait getting blow away and sick of putting t in my bag or box as its starting to make them smell

Go to a building site mate, or even better if you know anyone who works on one, the big paint buckes the get the pain in are ideal and they just toss them in the skip when there done!

Codmaster i got mine from id fishing last year when i bought live crab. John had a few in the back room, dont know if he sells them but you could ask him where they come from.. They are the exact ones your talking about. I use 1 and 2 pint maggot boxes and they fit side by side in the bucket you want. They are a first class bait bucket

As some of you may know I paint tennis courts for a living.

Its a waterbased paint in 20 Litre drums with very secure and watertight lids. They wash out very well when first used.

If anybody wants any drums send me a pm and I will work out how to get them to you. I have so many of them that I have to get a notifiable waste skip in twice a year to dispose of them.

I wont have any clean ones for a month or so (when the weather warms up and I start painting for the summer)

Cheers

thanx for the offer for me but i think a 20 lt drum is a bit big for what i need it for but thanx for the offer other members might be intrested

thanx ian
