I got a hole saw set once from them an didn't ask the price, got charged 80 pound.

went back in an said whats all that about ? They more or less halfed it, fleecing bar stewards
 
Hate Plumbase. Too expensive. Genuinely think Williams are by far the best. Not just butt licking either.
 
I have a couple of the regin hoses, got them for £30 +vat I think. I love them, much better than any other hose I have used and well worth the money in my eyes.
 
It's a nice one though. I paid. £65 for an estwing 6lb lump hammer. Quality tools.
I have no problem paying out top dollar for quality tools, i've got 10's of 000 £ worth but we are talking hose here and i won't pay a fiver a meter for a bloody hose.
 
Every Easter my wife buys a new full length hose - I then borrow it from September onwards
and it gets shorter and shorter as winter progresses - she then looks for it in April shouts t
me and gets another one - cycle begins again !

Same with mops she buys new ones I unblock w.c
with them and for some strange reason she never wants them back CHK
 
I use tricoflex its yellow a little pricey but tough as nails doesnt kink keeps its shape regardless of temp and is easy to coil. Just remember to roll your hose up and not wrap it round your hand and elbow.

Wrap it with your hand straight, three middle fingers curled in and your tumb and pinky pointed up.
bend your wrist to get it off 🙂

tis what we used to do when roping up bales of straw or hay, could always tell the idiot who did it around their elbow and hand.
