Yep, that's it. Having used one, I now wouldn't be without it. I wish this thread had happened three months ago. The plastic diffuser on our kitchen tap sheared off when I was unscrewing it to descale it. After a couple of weeks trying to find a replacement (I found the exact same tap in Homebase but couldn't find who made it) I gave up and Araldited the bit of the old one back onto the tap. I'm now debating if I can remove it, especially get all the Araldite out of the threads, so I can fit one of these. "parish" parish_AT_ntlworld.com wrote in message ...

You can buy them from Lakeland, best thing since the invention of the bread maker. Don't know if they have a web site. Is this the one? http://tinyurl.com/gshy I remember when I visited the US years ago just about every tap (or faucet as they like to call them) was like this. They're great, you can turn the tap on full blast and it doesn't splash when you put anything in the stream. Thanks for the pointer. Regards, Parish Martin. "Nigel Mercier ®" wrote in message ... On holiday in Italy the hotel had a basin with a mixer tap. The water came out in a stream similar to the "champagne" effect on my shower, full of bubbles. I guess this is caused by an aerator. Has anyone seen such taps for sale in the UK? I want it to be a fairly traditional design, and in gold effect finish. -- Nigel Mercier Please remove NOSPAM from my return address |
