The post socket comprises a compressible sleeve 21, 21 within a housing 3, 5, 7, 9, the sleeve comprising a grip section 23 adjustably moveable between a first grip position and second grip position, the second grip position having a smaller internal width than the first grip position, a lever arm 29 rotatably attached to the housing, and an actuator to rotate the lever arm around a first pivot point. The grip section is rotatably attached to the lever arm at a second pivot point, to move the grip section from the first to the second grip position, to grip and retain a post within the sleeve. The actuator may comprise a projection 41 extending from the housing and an operator moveable relative to the projection. The operator may move in a first direction to rotate the lever arm around the first pivot point from a retracted position to an engaged position.
