Do you know what a jubilee clip is?

That'll be the one, quite an interesting history into the Jezreels site we learnt at school.

Was that at Byron Rd or Barnsole?

From the random irritations thread.

Don’t look it up, honest answers

Privacy settings to protect the ignorant, but Homer and GG26 don’t get that protection as they have already posted 🙄

Why do you ask? I find they are not as prevalent as they once were.
I don't think there are any on my car, there used to be though, on previous older cars

Lovely Jubilee 🙃

If you're talking which of those 2 schools neither... If talking either of those 3 roads it's neither again...

I was at Chatham South when we did a bit of local history on James Jershom Jezreel, and Jezreels Tower, where the site gets it name from.

This is pretty much all that we learnt in a nutshell, shows that places in Medway were just as interesting for reasons outside of their Military importance back in the day..

Not used one since Hozelock produced their hosepipe connectors but have a jar full in the shed.

Used to fix hose connections with them. Brilliant they were

Clearly I've lived a simple and sheltered life. That and I crap at DIY car repairs and building stuff so avoid it all like the plague

Still use them to secure appliance waste hoses to sink spigots etc

no...you used a suitably sized one

Or join two together if you don't have one big enough.

I have very big reason to remember what one is. Driving my car to the MOT centre I blew the engine up.

Just done a major engine overhaul and I forgot to tighten just one on a water pipe back in the days when cars did not have temperature gauges.
