Lo all,

Doing a bit of minor outside work and it presents the perfect
opportunity to bury a time capsule. Something I've always wanted to do
since seeing Blue Peter's abortive efforts as a kid in the 70s.

How about using a length of plastic soil pipe with suitable end caps with
their own (synthetic)rubber seals etc.?

I think that for _long_ term burial of artefacts, plastics are best
avoided.
