One other tip which Trevor Perry told me is you won't need the 3rd seal. Only the 2 that are the same size. That's all I've done put 2 in. Been fine.

Top tip.
When in Thailand the only thing that can't be altered are hands and feet. This means the gorgeous size 8 thai girl who has been giving you (the fat bald old man) the eye all night  is a no go if she has size 9 feet.
Remember this!

The thai girls? No normal "durex rubbers" are strong enough.
