Switch brakes

Hi,

I just bought a mtb a couple of days ago and am presented with a slight problem. The bike and I are in the UK and in the UK the set the brakes up the wrong way around, i.e. left-rear/right-front. I'm not used to it and I would prefer to change them around (rather than getting used to having the like they are now).

The brakes are Shimano XT Disc Brake BR-M765, set up with some Shimano levers (no specification). Would it be as simple as shifting the hoses around? It seems like it should work... Has anyone had this problem before or done it before?

Grateful for any input!
