I am guessing English isn't your first language then!

I suppose we should create a whole new language called textspeak & get translators in, so the rest of us can understand you properly!

It would have come across much better if you had at least spell-checked it first.

OK. I'll get me coat & climb off my soapbox now, but after 10 pints I couldn't resist, sorry!

I think English is his first language, just over-familiar with the sound of some words and too lazy to check them. (fort = thought!) It's difficult to read which is discourteous to the people who are being asked to give advice.

Is it a banjo type fitting?
If so it needs copper washers not o rings.
