The good thing is that they are very durable. Some of mine are 10 years old, and the taps are still good.

Yes and unless he's got that ladder locked to the wall, it's an invitation to any would-be-burglars!

We don't have a single water butt yet. It's on my list to get installed before winter. I've been researching rain water harvesting system which can be plumbed into a toilet and outdoor tap, but it's out of our budget at the moment. The cheapest system seems to be an above ground, direct feed system. For example: https://www.rainwaterharvesting.co.uk/d ... system-106
