Re: heat shrink tubeing
Halford's do a little box full of various sizes.
Using short lengths will let you slide a larger diameter over a smaller diameter and then heat it, you'll get a better seal form larger to smaller wires that way.
If using a larger diameter sleeve to shrink onto two pieces of wire, squeeze a tiny bit of silicon sealer inside before shrinking it; this keeps water out and the joint can't corrode over time.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Maplins do packets of heat shrink in 1mtr lengths for reasonable money Seb.

You can also get glue lined heat shrink.
