Compression Ring in the picture. The "body" would be the valve you'll be replacing.

Right, OK, now I see what you mean.

Need to see if I've a spanner to fit the nuts. If not, money spent on good tools is never wasted.

Any replacement will come with the compression nuts and olives as a complete piece. You can cheat and possibly use the old fittings, replacing just the valve.

I've been trying to tidy up my bookcase.

I have one of two possible problems:

A. My bookcase is too small.

Or

B. I have too many books.



Perhaps the amount of bookcases you need is n+1!

That is a problem I am *very* familiar with.

I have books stacked on the floor in the sitting room because I've nowhere else to put them.

How many Centauri does it take to change a light bulb?

Just one.

But in the days of the old republic, hundreds of servants would change thousands of lightbulbs at our whim.

How many Minbari does it take to change a lightbulb?

One. But they don't finish the job and never tell you why.

Note: Reynard Bonuses for anyone who gets the reference.

And it's time for me to put the writing away and trot off to bed via a nice hot bath.

Nunnight one and all xxx

Aye there's 2 nurses at my GP's surgery, one knows what she's doing but the other just pokes around for ages so you end up with a bruise the size of a half-crown. Mind I managed to get my type 2 under control by losing over 20Kg, got my blood pressure down too still slightly high but in the 'acceptable' range now.

Dentist appointment completed
Nice walk across town due to traffic in town centre gridlocked.
Belated first cuppa brewing
Still grey but not raining

'Good' morning from a thoroughly wet, dull & miserable Suffolk. Coffee has been had while watching the rain fall.

Eye test later this morning which will doubtless cost me a new pair of driving glasses and while I'm in town I may pop into the Gas Shop and see about booking a boiler service ahead of winter.
