Most (but not all) churches have a tap round the back for flowers. Saved me from dehydration once.

Saved me from dehydration once.I spent a night in northern France looking round the backs of a few churches to no avail! Was amused to see that some of them had other tyre tracks already there. Eventually found what must be the only bakery in France that opens at 4am on a Saturday
That is correct, I found a couple of petrol stations with headless taps in France. Common in Australia too.I don't remember it being an issue elsewhere in Europe besides France so not widespread enough that I'd carry a brass tap head but a plastic one would be better.
Kim, you are very bad!
I've also used one for 'truing' a chainring - if you want more validated uses.

And as an ear wig dissuader.
Matthew came to this thread expecting a completely different topic of conversation. For me, professionally, water sources are rivers, reservoirs and aquifers (chalk, gravels and greensands) and the associated water treatment works.
I've been using Osmand with the POI overlay of drinking water. Unfortunately my most recent map update broke something. I've reported it as a bug to Osmand, but not heard back. J

Limoges, (France!) 45°49'53"N 1°15'28"E (according to internet).I know there is water - except on the Plateau de Millevaches where it costs so much the locals refuse to connect to the supply; normal, they have one of the highest rainfalls in France! What's your lat/long (roughly). Am curious if OSM has a different view...J
