Dude that sucks... I assume one of the jobs this year is to build a decent access in the driveway for said stop tap? Can you and the neighbours not stump up to improve the supply? I know it's not the point and it would annoy the hell out of me to find shoddy work because it can be covered up, but if...

Indeed... a bit of wounded pride is about the worse of it.

Feeling better now though, my cover arrived today and went on tonight;
