Over the years I have had various watering cans, from a couple of
Haws 7 litre plastic (both eventually cracked) to something very
much cheaper which lasted about as long, but has just reached the
end of the road.

I'm not a heavy user, as it is easier to get the hose out for a
serious bit of watering. I reckon that it is sunlight rather than
abuse that sees them off.

Should I go for a metal can this time, or is rust just as likely
to cause its demise?

OTOH perhaps I should just be content that if I can still lift it
by the time it expires, I'm the winner?
