How much?!?!
Requiring a 3Kg lead block to trim my wing for dips in the salty stuff using my thicker undersuit, I popped into my local LDS to purchase the aforementioned lump. "That'll be £21 please kind sir!".
FFS 7 bucks a kilo!!!!, I only strted diving 3 years ago, and at that time I payed £2.50 a kilo, what has happened - have aliens stolen the entirety of mother earth's galena or has fishing caught on big style in the last few years?

A visit to the local church roof migh be an option

Lead flashing for roofing works out at £4 a kilo (it is £28 for a 7kg strip) and it melts or bends easily. I got some from Selco last week to make P weights.
