I can do better than that. I connected my hose just so I could walk to the front of my van to wash the screen and managed to tie a knot in my pole hose and microbore at the same time.  >:(

can be a big pain as gardens are getting smaller but more crap going in them - you should give a backpack a try? - just pick it up and off you go - no long annoying hose getting stuck on stuff.

it would prob even speed you up a little, rather than lugging round that stupid 50 litre trolley for cleaning houses.

I use a small trolley with 25 ltr containers,i so jobs i leave it at the gate and attach my 30 metre hose,I take it through the house to do back windows with probs These trads forget to mention drag ladders through peoples homes scuffing wall paper and getting stuck in hallways setting ladders on slippery paving slabs,climbing a triple ladder to reach that 40 foot window with your heart in your mouth etc.
Water fed pole every time for me and i put up with the hoses and the extra money in my bank account  ;D
