Yesterday morning I experienced something I have never seen in twenty years of WFP.
My son was late for work (no that's not the new experience)? and I had already done the front of a large house and had just moved around the back when he arrived, in a hurry. As he sped down the drive my pole was nearly pulled out of my hand. It turns out that I had foolishly forgotten to tuck the hose in to the side of the drive and as he ran over it, lengthwise, it had wedged between the tread blocks of his rear tyre and wrapped itself a few times around the wheel. Fortunately no harm done.
We have only just started using 6mm hose, the various hose we have used previously would all have been to fat for this to happen.
Just thought I would share so that other users of 6mm hose are aware of the potential for an issue.
