Had to fit an 'outside' tap for a client yesterday - except it wasn't
'outside'.

Industrial unit, want to use a hose outside, tap required just inside the
door.

Popped into B&Q on the way to the job to be faced with 'outside tap kits'
and 'deluxe outside tap kits'. £9:99 & £12:99 respectively.

The 'outside tap kit' was in a clear plastic bag, proper bib tap, self
cutting valve. The 'deluxe outside tap kit' was in a green printed bag.
Bought the 'deluxe outside tap kit' for the extra few quid.

What a pile of ****e. The 'deluxe bit was the inclusion of two cheap &
nasty plastic hose connectors & an equally cheap & nasty spray gun.

The self cutting valve was Ok, the tap was absolute crap, inlet on the top
outlet on the bottom, or vice versa, skimpy thing that wouldn't last 5
minutes, bloody rubbish. Took it back.

Avoid like the plague.
