O-ringing the Changes

Bit of an optical illusion here. Non-nerds will see an outdoor tap. Nerds will note that the Hozelock 2299 hose adaptor has had it's 18mm O-ring replaced. Obviously replacing the 23mm O-ring would be inappropriate here as the water seal between adaptor and tap is being achieved via the hand tightened Jubilee clip. And anyway, you wouldn't see the 23mm as it's internal. Bottom line though is that the water now goes through the hose-pipe rather than onto the operator's feet. Life is good.
