Default Clearing gutters... any tricks or tools?

Actually, I had - and still have - a few gutters on the garage.

Hose, or better still pressure washer, gets the muck out in seconds, and
flushes the downpipes.

Any muck that ends up on the walls gets hosed away as well afterwards.

Hi

Now all the leaves are down I need to clear the gutters as quite a few are
completely full and overflowing etc. problem is that most of them are

about

5-6 metres up!

Is there a specific tool you can get? I'm thinking of something like a
hooked garden hoe on a long pole. Best idea I can come up with is to fix a
garden hose onto a long reach roller pole I've got (4.8 metres) and blast
the leaves out but this will be ridiculously messy.

Anyone else got any suggestions?
