Default Flexible hose - 68mm internal diameter

I'm looking for a piece flexible hose/pipe to connect to standard 68mm
O/D rainwater downpipe. Length about 6 inches.

Can anyone suggest a likely source of anything suitable or something
that can be modified to suit?

Old fire hose must be pretty close. Know any fire fighters?

What about that concertina stuff they put up flues? I've got a bit in a
filing cabinet in the garden shed, I thought might come in handy one day.
Sounds like such might be bodgeable for you.

Otherwise: tractor tyre inner tube - also v useful for making giant rubber
bands. We used to cut up loads in a place I used to work, but I never did
enquire where they got the old tubes.
