    Sorry was not sure what forum.

    Can you advise where I could get an adaptor for a pump so it will fit an air mattress value. its one of those plastic valves like the ones on swimming arm bands.

    Thanks if you can help

    Are those things not usually designed to be blown manually?

    You can buy a 3 nozzle air pump relatively cheaply in argos, should fit, you are welcome.

    Had the same problem last week with a pool.
    Squeeze the valve tight and fit the oversized nozzel over it.The pump pressure is high enough to force the air in.
    Worked for me anyway.

    Try cobbling together a small funnel and gaffer tape.

    Try holding it up and running around outside in the wind and it will inflate "naturally".
