Question. Has anyone the experience of having mains pressure on the hose

the time and only using the 'far end' with a spray or nozzle as and when

Can Hozelock Hose withstand that sustained pressure?

It tends to inflate over time and not relax back to its original
diameter. This is fine as long as you never want to add new connectors
partway along.

Thanks to you both for your replies. I am experimenting with something and
today's experiment blew the joints apart, BUT, they were only finger tight
and once I put a pair of grips to them they seemed OK :-))

Any more contributions please?
