Now I may sound a bit daft here, but I want to remove my battery for winter as suggested on here and charge it at home in the garage every now and then.

But, what do I need to buy to charge it?  Can someone post a link as its my first winter and I've no idea whats best.

Thanks :)

You need one suitable for leisure batteries. I use one of these and it works a treat for me

I don't keep on charge all the time just every so often during winter.

You may also find this useful for checking the anount of charge in your battery

Maplins are very good on mail order

Have fun
