My pole hose always gets stiffer in the winter, bending it and putting a kink iin it to stop the flow is hard work in the winter
I tend to put it in my mouth and bite hard on it with my teeth, get some funny looks from people going past though, with my hose bent double between my teeth I must look pretty strange....
The above is totally innocent, but ye gods :
It's laden with inuendo though, and it isn't even intentional!!
