Default 8mm flex plastic pipe adaptors/reducers

I've got an Aquaspout drinking tap, this is fed from an 8mm(?)
flexible blue plastic pipe. It's a long story, but I wish to interface
this to a standard 15mm 'quarter turn' shut off valve.

I've seen 10mm adaptors, but not 8mm. Surely they exist ?

TIA

Saw some in a B&Q warehouse last night. Picked them up when searching for
the 10mm ones.

If you are talking a std compression service valve and the plastic pipe will
take compression you could use a 15mm/8mm reducing set, code 9349,
43p +vat each from http://www.bes.co.uk or a plumbers' merchant. I
expect you'll need to use an insert in the pipe. Can't see 8mm in speedfit.
