Not been on the forum for quite a while. Has Croppie retired? Didn't see any comments from him on any of the threads I looked at.

Hey ho. **** happens.
Its very rare that people who start things together stay together. People grow in different ways and so do their opinions and needs.
Just look at all the great couples in computing! Even, dare I say, in the world of taps! THE John Guest of Guest & Chrimes, the guys in Rotherham who originally patented the high pressure tap in 1845, parted company soon after due to business disagreements. It aint new!

I still laugh when I think of App and what he said in a thread about a new bathroom being ripped out.
The OP asked us to guess why a new suite was being replaced.
Eventually he posted to say the home owners were on holiday and their kids left a door open and a cow got into the house and got trapped in the bathroom, wrecking it.
App came in with the line,
“I once let a cow into my home. Cost me a fortune.”
:p

App was also a big loss.

How to identify dripping tap.
Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?

Brass tap body is leaking.
I have attached an image of the brass body within a tap. Having replaced a cartridge which has cured a leaking tap, I can see that there is a small leak from the brass body which can be unscrewed. Is there a seal behind the body? Thanks.
