Default preserving (canning) fruit and veg

Unfortunately Lakeland don't do canning jars. The bail arm types are
unsuitable for home processing, they are ok for doning in a water
bath, but even that is dubious as the bail is too strong. OK for
fruit in syrup.
Unfortunately the old 2 piece kilner style jars are no longer made in
the UK
