gas bottle adapters
 
I recently bought a galp butano (yellow) bottle and went into Ayemonte for an adapter but when I tried to use it, it was the wrong one, Can anyone help?

This may be your problem then. I switch from the yellow to the metal ones no problem. They say that in the colder months, the yellow ones are more efficient whilst in summer, the metallic ones are better.

On things like gas, changing a connection I would get done through a proper Galp fitter or gas engineer etc - not worth taking the risk.

Yeah, try to find a pro who can hold a screwdriver and knows how a jubilee clip works. It takes years of training!!!!!!!

So, Jur? Why can't you accept that a little advice is not a bad thing???

Come on! You have been a source of advice for your people for several years now, why put yourself in a position - especially given your current role - where you seem indifferent
