The whole body of the kitchen tap is loose. I've felt underneath and there doesn't seem to be a locking nut? What do I need to do to tighten it back up? Photograph of the tap and one from underneath.

Thanks

Can you lift the whole tap out? There should be a nut, but can’t see it because it should be the other side of your flexi hoses.
 
I had another feel (can't get my head in) and there is a screw thread with a small nut. Better photo below. is this it? Doesn't seem big enough?

So just a matter of tightening it a bit then?

I was starting to think the tap was somehow screwed into the sink....
 
Edited other reply, yes, should just want tightening up, a monobloc spanner should sort you out, they’re about £5.
 
Can I buy a set of those - I'm guessing that the nut is about 1cm across? But I'm probably out.
