RE: WaterBOB
Good find, far more sensible and usuable to boot. Nice sensible price as well

RE: WaterBOB
Not so portable either option, 1 liter weighs approx 1kg so 80 liters is 80kg is 175 lbs....
Heavy bugger that water.
I do like the barrow bag though, looks infinetly more sturdy than the bath bob...
Would it need to be in a barrow or similar shaped box for support do you think or would it support its own weight?
Wheel barrows are less than stable and if the bag falls out.... hmmm

Well I thought as an option for the bath,..I think it would sit in the bath ok, what do you think?.... it would need some sort of hand pump, but they are easy enough to get hold of

it is I agree, a great item, except that I cant afford £50.
P1,... you could even use the wheel barrow in your hall in an emergency

RE: WaterBOB
All day my mind has kept coming back to these wheelbarrow sized green potable water bags, Y'know i think they could be the basis for a complete water storage and filtration system for urban preppers that would free up a great deal of space if they kept half a dozen of these bags stored empty compared with dozens of 2 and 3 litre pop bottles which appears to be the norm for many urban preppers.
