The 99p shop has ceramic things with little hoses - 3 for 99p. Haven't tried them yet but might be OK for pots
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

I've used lemonade bottles and plastic milk bottles in the past very successfully.  I've cut the bottom off and half-buried them in the soil - this allows the air pressure to push the water into the soil, aiding the suction generated by capillary action.  I've put a few holes in the cap with a Swiss Army knife corkscrew.  Works well.
