We have a 9 acre smallholding which has some fairly spread out and not often looked at pipework, electricity supplies, etc.
After a recent episode with a stop c*ck down a hole on which I needed to tighten the gland nut I've decided some labels with a little bit of information on them would be very useful - this is mostly for myself but might be of use to the rest of the family, visitors, house sitters, etc.
Taking the 'stop c*ck down a hole' as an example it would be really useful to have a note that says:-
"Stop c*ck for all outside water. 16mm gland nut"
I hadn't remembered that it only turns off the outside water (we have the standard stop c*ck under the sink for the house) and I certainly hadn't remembered the size of the spanner required for the gland nut. Knowing the spanner size would have saved quite a bit of time and bad language. :-)
So has anyone got any suggestions for a good way of fixing a label near the above, it'll need a small stake in the ground or something to fix onto bricks. I have a Dymo that produces supposedly weatherproof labels so all I need in addition is something smooth and sound to stick the label onto.
I've looked at plant labels but they mostly seem just a bit too small and designed for sticking into soft ground only.
