Hi,
Does anyone know where I can get a rubber changing tub for putting my wetsuit and stuff into after I get out of the water? I've seen a few people in Ireland with them but I can't find a shop or website that delivers to Ireland. You can see the product I'm talking about on this link , but unfortunately they don't deliver to Ireland.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Hannah

Thats what i got, keeps my car dry, and does exactly the same job as the tub PLUS it has a lid.

Go to local engineering co/farmer/garage/stroke any place that might have big tubs of owt and ask them for one for nowt.
My last proper job we used to have 50l tubs of swarfega, thats where my kit sits.

I didn't bother because I figured they'd be easy enough to find on the internet....and of course since I've been looking for one I haven't seen anyone with one of the tubs!
Thanks for the other suggestions though - I'll look them up!
Cheers

I got one of them in a cheap Euro shop...it cost 10 euros. Brilliant, take off the wettie and stuff and chuck it in there and off i go! The moonbags look good for standing on though (if ur on a sandy area).

Found exactly what I'm looking for from the above link. When you go on to that website they're a subsidiary of
www.faulks.co.uk/store and I found a lovely bright pink! tub and you can get a material lid for them which you can use for standing on when changing out of your wetsuit.
Thanks a million for passing on the link to this website![/img]

The original brand of that type of tub is Gorilla tub.
I got mine in the local B&Q for £5 so don't get ripped off.
Local garden centre also had them, both in loads of sizes and colors.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the heads up James - will check B&Q before I order online....although the B&Q stores in Ireland don't seem to have the same variety of stuff as the ones in England.

This is exactly what I would have to reccomend. Neat, Cheap and tidy!
We call them the "$2 dollar shop" BTW.
