I have a hosepipe. I have a tap in my garden.

Tap is like this: but it is NOT threaded

Therefore I bought one of these to attach to the tap. It fits the tap
perfectly

I then attached one of these to the hose tap end

When I connect them 2 bits together they fit together but water leaks out
between them... am i I doing it right?

I spose even if I had a threaded tap I would use one of these connectors,
but I would still get a leak because they conenct in the same way??

On the other end of the hose I have another one of the things above attached
to one end of the hose and a spray gun (both of those are the cheap Homebase
ones and work fine).
