I don't use them, if they can't see a bright yellow hose then really should try specsave

I agree!

I think to cover yourself as much as possible you should use a warning sign if you're hose crosses a public footpath, I know if it's just a quick job then away the teptation will be not to bother, but if someone was to trip over your hose then you could be in all kinds of problems.

Cover yourself, you don't need the hassle of someone trying to make a claim.

I know what you are saying but .....
Is it definately law that you need warning cones?
Even warning cones can be a hazard, do the warning cones need warning cones?
The binmen round here leave the green bins and black boxes scattered all over the pavement, I think if our hoses are classed as a hazard then a wheelie bin/ box definately is, and they ain't got warning cones around them

seems like the majority use them ,  according to gardiners site ,a window cleaner was succesfully sued, after a member of the public tripped over his hose, even though he had warning cones out , the fact he was using clear hose(i presume they mean pole hose), represented an avoidable hazard, so now they supply yellow pole hose.
anybody know who the window cleaner was?
