As stated, you certainly should be able to get them in a garden centre/B & Q etc as I've seen them in such places.  You may have to settle for the round ones though rather than the ones that can have a spanner used on them.

B/Q kind of sell them, but not on their own. Take a spanner and check the fittings that are in there hose guns.

Undo the fitting just to be sure its the same size, I had to buy the hose gun just to get the fitting.

Check with the spanner because some fittings are fixed solidly and some do unscrew.

Bit more expensive but at least you can work.

Were they the round ones or the hexagonal ones?

not round not hexagonal, kind of half round with 2 straight edges so you can use a spanner to tighten if that makes sense
