Going on holiday tomorrow morning
and the soldered joint to a tap in the
downstairs toilet is leaking (one drip
every ten seconds). I've been trying
to get a plumber to come out before
I go, but can't get one for love nor
money(maybe they're all in
Teuksbury :^()))). Is there any tape
I can buy tomorrow morning, before
I go, to wrap around the joint and hold
it for two weeks till I get back?

Wouldn't it be simpler and safer to just turn the water off at the main stop
cock before you leave?
