For you plumbers out there :-)

Could someone tell me where I could get one of these bath plugs as struggling (in Ireland) to find one. I know the pin is missing from it but I need a replacement plug. This is one that uses a mechanism on the taps to open and close the plug from memory, rather than the wheel on the bath. Are the plugs all a standard size? Thanks

I'd be more worried about the moss on that drive ;-)

The above link looks good - the 'pin' is basically a machine screw/threaded bar adjusted to the correct length - whether operated by a lever or twisty knob, there's something in the drain that moves up & down two the 'pin' length needs to be adjusted to suit.

That looks like it. Thanks guys. Where does one get the screw part from?

Maybe this one would be better - if it's the right size

What the hell is going on with those finger nails?????

I had the same problem. That's a lifted plug not a click clac right?

I inherited a huge number of knitting needles from mother in law. I found one of a suitable diameter screwed it into the threaded section and by trial and error cut to length. The needles are hard plastic so use a cup of boiling water to soften the end if needs be.

Knitting needles are surprisingly useful.
