Wow, £7.98 for a plastic bottle. There are many similar plastic dispensers that can work a treat. Long ago, when my Wife use to colour her hair, and I would reuse the plastic bottles for oils; they work great and cost nothing. Other useful dispensers can also be repurposed, like the glue bottle in the photo..............................
Bottles like this work well on mill, drill and lathe.

I use the same stuff (thou in smaller bottles) and find it brilliant! I was given a tin of the hmt stuff last vat free day too but. It got round to using itI use tygris metalworking fluid, it works well, but it's only because I bought 5 litres of the stuff and need to use it up!
The best lube I've ever used is HMT speedlube, it's SO worth it, it's amazing how it makes your tools cut cleaner and better than any other lube. An aerosol can of it will last a DIY'er forever, you don't even need a leaky oil can for it.
