Ade, this is America we are talking about, an advanced country. None of your
quicklime privvies in the outback here man <g>. Also please allow for their
linguistic limitations <g> (for those transationally challenged within the
US tap=faucet - it is nothing to do with a bugle (or trumpet)).

As I understand it, you do not need a new one just repack it with string (or
similar). Mind you if the media are anything to go by, in America, when a
faucet leaks, you get a new bathroom <g>.
[BTW why faucet? There seems to be no obvious origin to it (or is it an
ancient native American word? <g>).]
