1. A container for liquid, comprising a body defining a void in which liquid can be stored, in which the body has an orifice allowing access into the void, the body being provided with a handle arranged to be grasped by a user,the container being provided with an elongate spout that removably engages the orifice,the handle being provided with a location for storage of the spout, wherein the location comprises a first portion of the handle sufficiently wide such that the spout can pass through along its length and a second portion adjacent to the first portion, the spout being able to move from the first portion into the second portion at at least one position along its length, the second portion being narrower than the first portion such that once moved into the second portion, the spout can no longer be removed from the second portion along the length of the spout, andwherein the spout comprises a waist providing a local minimum in a width of the spout perpendicular to its length, the waist defining the position at which the spout can be moved into the second portion of the handle. 2. The container of claim 1, in which the handle comprises a through passage through the body of the container, within which are a first position and a second position, in which, with the spout in the second portion, the through passage being sufficiently large to allow the passage of a user's hand. 3. The container of claim 1, in which the body has a base on which the container can be stably stood and two opposing side faces extending away from the base, the side faces being joined by first and second opposing side walls extending away from the base, the side faces and the first and second side walls being capped by a top wall opposing the base, the orifice being in the top wall adjacent to one of the first or second side walls with both the first and second side walls being provided with handles arranged to be grasped by a user, the location being in one of the handles in the first and second side walls. 4. The container of claim 3, in which the top wall is provided with a handle. 5. The container of claim 3, in which the second side wall is provided with a plurality of feet, on which the container can be stably stood. 6. The container of claim 5, in which the feet extend into, and act to stiffen, the side faces. 7. The container of claim 5 in which the handle in the second side wall is provided in one of the feet. 8. A container for liquid, comprising a body defining a void in which liquid can be stored, the body having a base on which the container can be stably stood, two opposing side faces extending away from the base, the side faces being joined by first and second opposing side walls extending away from the base, the side faces and the first and second side walls being capped by a top wall opposing the base,in which the top wall has a orifice adjacent to the first side wall, the orifice allowing access into the void, and the orifice extends substantially perpendicular to the base, in which both the first and second side walls are provided with handles arranged to be grasped by a user,wherein the handle in the first side wall is in the form of a through passage through the body of the container, leaving a generally tubular part which can be grasped by a user for the container to be carried, andwherein the second side wall is provided with a plurality of feet, on which the container can be stably stood. 9. The container of claim 8, in which the top wall is provided with a handle. 10. The container of claim 8, in which the container is provided with an elongate spout that removably engages the orifice. 11. The container of claim 10, in which one of the handles is provided with a location for storage of the spout. 12. The container of claim 11, in which the location comprises a first portion of the handle sufficiently wide such that the spout can pass through along its length and a second portion adjacent to the first portion, the spout being able to move from the first portion into the second portion at at least one position along its length, the second portion being narrower than the first portion such that once moved into the second portion, the spout can no longer be removed from the second portion along the length of the spout. 13. The container of claim 12, in which the spout comprises a waist providing a local minimum in a width of the spout perpendicular to its length, the waist defining the position at which the spout can be moved into the second portion of the handle. 14. The container of claim 8, in which the base is provided with a plurality of feet, on which the container can be stably stood. 15. The container of claim 8, in which the feet extend into, and act to stiffen the side faces. 16. The container of claim 8, in which the handle in the second side wall is provided in one of the feet. 17. The container of claim 8, in which the liquid is a petroleum-based fuel. 18. The container of claim 8, provided with a stopper, arranged so as to block the orifice when the spout is not being used. 19. The container of claim 8, in which the orifice is the only access into the void.
