Use a heat gun to get the hose good and hot. The trouble I found with using boiling water was that the hose cooled down so quickly that I didn't have time to get it into position to get it on. Heat gun worked a treat.

Ditto. It needs a lot of heat.

The nicest thing about not planning is that failure comes as a complete surprise, and is not preceded by a period of worry and doubt.
