Skipper Billy, that is bad luck, If you ever see any of the GPO lads working in the street, have a bit of cheek and ask if they could possibly furnish you with ( at a price ) a length of their draw cord. Other than that, I have used platted nylon cord, available from good hardware suppliers, bit on the expensive side though, but very strong. I used 40mm household waste water pipe, with slow bends, to use as a conduit, when I put my supplies underground, with no bother. If you have started digging I am probably too late to suggest this. You can buy quite cheaply, online or from hardware st

Paul, If you measure the diameter of the hole, this should give you an indication of the screw size, which, in all probability, will one of the standard metric sizes, used mostly now as the industry standard.

I personally, would replace all screws with Stainless steel, there will be no chance of rust attacking
