There is proposed a seal for a retractable spout of a container, comprising a flexible generally elongate tubular body including a first annular end and an opposite second annular end. The first annular end of the seal is fixedly held circumferentially around or adjacent, an opening in the container through which the spout is configured to extend to thereby inhibit movement of a flowable substance out between an outer surface of said spout and an edge of said opening. The second annular end of the seal engaging with and extending outwardly from a lower or inner end of said spout. In this way when the spout is in a retracted position the second annular end bears against a bearing surface of the container to thereby inhibit movement of said flowable substance out through said spout.
