I thought I had done well to pick up what appeared to be a 10 litre oak barrel, complete with spigot, bung and stand. I turned out to be a brilliant fake, complete with rust marks and other signs of age. The actual capacity was barely more than 3 litres. Worse still the convincing looking plastic spigot leaked just like a wooden one! At the other end of the scale, my local Wyvale garden centre had a 50 gallon oak barrel reduced to £45. I was momentarily tempted. On the upside, I found a 20 litre collapsable water carrier, complete with removable tap and carry handle in Aldi for £4, perfect for a 30 bottle kit.
