I'll try and remember the most of it, some of the things i just had lying around the garage.
1. 5m extending Harris pole, from B&Q @ £14.98
2. 10m of black fine bore hosing, from pond/hosing section of B&Q @ £5 or so.
3. 1 sprayer lance and fittings, i got this from a local garden centre/diy store. Cost roughly £12
4. connection between finebore hose and backpack assembly, i already had this from a previous thing. Its basically a push fit connector, a length of minibore hosing and a minibore connector(is it known as a rectus something or other?!)
5. various other bits and pieces like insulating tape, a couple of screws, tools like pliers, drills and files and screwdrivewrs.

For me the total bill came to around £35.

You can easily reach any 2 storey spouting, i can reach the peak of the fascia at the side of our large 2 storey house. But i am 6'4''!! but a small steps will get you the rest of the distance of you are ever stuck. You can see in picture 4 that the pole is leaning against the house fully open and is almost at the spouting already

so what sort of brush is best for it and any tips on any little tools you may use to complete differant tasks.
the brush wont make much diffrance but a brush fitted with fan jets will .
