Bought a clothes line in Woodies a few days ago and was wondering if anyone could help re setting this up.

Basically the packaging states that it comes with a capped concrete setting.
This is not concrete but a plastic up that must be in set into concrete I suppose.

Does anyone know where you can get quick setting concrete for such a small job, ie this hardly requires a cement mixture!!

Just moved into new house and am a bit of a novice so any tips are appreciated.
 
You can buy dry bags of premixed cement and aggregate at most DIY and builder's providers now, just add water and mix up the required quantity. Use an old bucket or tub (relatively shallow with a wide base works best) and wedge the plastic insert in place, using wire or timber to keep it in position. If you wish you can put some boken brick or block into the base to reduce the amount of premix you need to buy. Don't add too much water to the mix as a stiffer mix works best for this.
 
For the bucket you could use one of those empty 10 litre paint buckets such as weathershield comes in.
