* Delivery every 6 weeks .. £420.00 per annum (excl.VAT) - £504 pounds total
* £??? for handling gloves. They need to be closed cuff, leather or thick material and preferably elbow length.
* £??? for a lock. Probably not a lot I  ([[User:Oni|Oni]]) would say.
* £??? for non-sealable thermos flasks (large and small) for the carrying of the nitrogen.
