You'll have to shape the end of the stick for a tight fit. Buy a few sizes as its the postage that gets you anyway
(Actually its browsing the catalogue that hurts ).
You can get them at game and country fairs too but they tend to be overpriced. A copper endpipe from B&Q works well as aa ferrule

Assuming you measured your stick in inches (12/16ths?), that's 3/4 inch. 25.4 mm/inch, so you're looking at a stick that's 19.05mm in diameter. I think you can figure the rest out on your own, assuming I understand what you've said.
at the moment i pretty much have my kit list sorted there is just a few more bits that i need, but the only clothing i have is my m65 coat and 3 wooly pullys i would like some trousers and some green fleeces so has anyone got any links to some or know of any good ones my budget is about £35 for each item of clothing
for the trousers i came across these what do you think
will they dry out fast or will they hold the water ?

I think they are the ones I got from S&A, but they don't look a thing like the picture. I am wearing mine now in fact and they are very durable, like a medium weight denim I suppose. If they got wet, they'd take longer to dry than issued lightweights, but I don't think it'd take too long. I think lightweights are the best trousers to wear to be quite honest with you, but I can't as it is part of my uniform and it wouldn't be worth the grief wearing them in my own time.
Fleeces, keep it cheap!! I have a fleece in black which cost me five euros. If it gets a hole in it, so what? It cost nothing and can be easily replaced. Also, if you are layering with them, you will stay warm!!
