I am about to start installing a new fence with concrete posts, followed

Does anyone know of any good/special deals at the moment for cement
mixers?

Hire one, unless you want the shed to be half-full as soon as you've
finished building it.

That would have to be one big mixer :-)

I am (obviously) costing between purchase and hire.

This is the cheapest I've seen so far; I am trawling for a used mixer but
not doing too well.

The project may drag over several weeks which could point towards buying,
however:

Subject to confirmation this will supply a 240V mixer for £10 a week up to
the 6th September.

Can't seee me beating that with a purchase!
