Yes you should, the direction is obvious to anyone who has completed at least cavern training

Those are good for arrows, the only negative thing is that they tend to be quite positive

You always place your sofnolime keg on your exit side of the T
So how many kegs can a team carry?

water container for dehumidifier when drying out your flooded house

Yeah, yeah, pass the Tena Lady...

I should add, they make good cave arrows only when combined with a pair of tin-snips, a drill, half an hour and a can of lager

They also make very good air-rifle targets. I know, I know, it's pathetic but that's all the government will let us have these days.

Hey.. sorry mate.. no offence intended towards your post.. was just having a slow day here... the idea popped into my head and it made me laugh... bloody hard to find a clean picture of a tub where I am right now too!!

Nearly spilt my coffee on Ben's suggestion of diving these tubs in a strictly DIR fashion tho...

You can tell he's not a caver-dark blue line!

Arrows 'point' the way to safety, so [obvously] the handle end points out.

Other uses:

Giant ice cube makers [useful for igloos]

Plant pots

Floats for rafts

Guzunders [don't try to dump 20kg of stale urine out of the window though]

Novelty slippers
