Yeah its all solvent weld over here pretty much, I used to moan and ask suppliers to get fittings with seals, honestly got used to it now and fittings with seals are finally available at our local suppliers but silly money and nobody's using them much.

yes those chambers are decent, rubber seals and a higher inlet by about 4cm.

In my mates old compact with cab I reckon a helmet wouldn't have been a bad idea. Was tiny and amount of times I called that cab some nasty names. Considered padding it...

There were 2 donkeys eating the grass next to the lock, a couple had walked with them from the coast and were having lunch
