drilling any glass (and ceramic) is doable, but hard work and a complete PITA.

I'll be trying to see if I can get a couple of these as well.......

It looks much the same as the one Wilkos had a while back only trouble I could see was that it has a crappy plastic tap .

You only get one go at it as well....as I know when it came to drilling a wine bottle.

Think I might stick with the wilco ones. With a clip top. Metal lids rot out after a while. Clip tops are fixable and and and always available if you want to upgrade later to a matching pair!
