Drivers, who were deleted from the registration, should place their name into the waiting list for later Marshals' reconsideration, just not to be forgotten.

the green jerry can is so rusty from inside, it can easily reflect your petrol color, if you keep petrol inside that will be fine but when you store it there will be no guarantee

Two more things would be wise to get.

1- Valves. If you don't have steal ones. They tend to break eventually.
2- belt. In case it falls or gets cut

Please ensure you buy a galvanised jerry can ... these are rust resistant

With reference to the post below they are talking about the cheap one which will never come galvanised.
The stainless steel one is the best.
