news 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?

Mike

I would be for using something more robust that cannot blow joints
apart.
Start with looking at --

for the hose and then near there for the connectors.

They are OK - not just seem Ok !!

Looks good Pete.

How small radius can I bend it?

It will be permanently fixed, but there will be tight bends in it.

Mike

Be aware that the connectors can and do come off. If this happens
unobserved the if you are on a water meter! Oh dear, very dear!


That is what I am afraid of. However both ends would be very visible and any
blow off would soon be seen. It's just that I don't want any!!!!
