Thanks for asking eskielover - no he hasn't come back yet. Since some recent landscaping we have a joint faucet which has 2 hose connections - one for the soaker hose and the other one for hand or sprinkler. There's valves you have to turn, to get one or the other going - so either he's finds this too inconvenient or just stopped coming idk. We also make sure we turn the water off now, so he would have to turn it on and figure out the attachment thingy's lol. Before the hose was regular and sometimes we wouldn't turn off the water at the faucet - making it too easy to use. Hopefully he won't ever come back.
