Buy your pole hose from B&Q, they sell 5mm.
-

-
Just ask someone in there,they do the size for the 2mm jets to and about a 15mm 1.It`s in the plumbing section.
-
is it clear?
-
Yes it`s clear and there`s normally scissors beside it and a measure,unless you`ve got arms like a monkey 1 open stretch with the arms is a meter.At first i took my pole in there so i didn`t by to little lol. ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
i've seen it, is it good for your pole then and quite flexible?
-
The trick to stop it leaking is to make sure that plastic end thing on your pole stays on there. It eventually falls off the poles i have bought and needs gluing on again.
A few times i've left it and the hose chaffs very quickly against the end of the pole when it goes in, which feels like a gnat is having a pee over your leg.
Keep that plastic bit there and the hose will last a long time.
