Default WTB: Hot Water Cylinder on a Saturday morning

Hi all,

Found that the hot water cylinder was leaking earlier this week and am
planning to replace tomorrow. I need an indirect combination hot/cold
one with ideally a 150/40 litre split. I was going to order off BES for
£196 but although they offer Saturday delivery they don't guarantee it
will arrive (my fault for not ordering earlier in the week!)

I suspect I won't get anywhere near as cheap as this from the sheds but
thought I'd ask in case anyone knew of anywhere off the top of their
heads worth checking.

On another note, has anyone attempted having a standard cylinder and
separate cold water tank both in the loft? What sort of weight is a 25
gallon tank and would it be fairly easy to support? The combi cylinder
is going next to the end wall and I was wondering if it would be
possible to use a standard cylinder instead and put a tank above half
supported by brackets/battens on the wall and timber legs. Might be a
bit dodgy though!

Anyways, any help or advice muchly appreciated.

Richard.
