Ladies, this isn't what you think. Sorry.

The other day I dropped, down a hole in a customer's floorboards, the little black knob/cap that screws onto a Caleffi air bottle (aka auto vent).

I Emailed Caleffi but this is the kind of trivial enquiry that manufacturer's seem never to get around to responding to.

Does anyone happen to have one of these that they don't need? Please?

Its normally left open a few turns and they often rattle themselves loose and fall out.

I suggest you buy another aav - they are only a few quid.

The "caps" are useful to pull a vacumn when pulling apart the boiler and perhaps prevent muck entering the vent. Of course many are screwed shut to stop the vents leaking :)

Er, yes, I know - I have 10 in stock. One of these has no black cap. :oops:
 
and thus the cycle begins - I have lost count of how many 15mm olives are missing from my fittings box stock :(

One day I'll buy a pack of olives - or become a real ***** and pinch them off my scrap... ;)

Please, enough already! Is this connected with tiny black knobs?
 
Whenever I get a honey I always end up with swollen balls and if she was really good they would probably be black with bruising :LOL: Don't know about the 'tiny' bit though :eek:
 
On swollen balls . Reminds me of when a mate got a vasectomy. He said one of them was the size of an orange but the other one was a big bassa. :eek: :eek:
