I just read a news item that claims Aldi 'so called' chicken is actually from stray cats.
But I hope you enjoy it

It was quite nice so there

Just arrived in London, was passed by a Deliveroo rider on an Electric Brompton 🤔

finished cutting a very overgrown shrub with my new battery powered chainsaw.Cut through the thicker branches with ease.Previously I would have use loppers and hand saw and took me ages.
Job done in 20 minutes.Good bit of kit

Let us know how you you got on.

I saw a advert for one a while ago and thought that’s just the sort of thing that I never knew I wanted but I really want one now . 😂😂😀

Normally I use my electric hedge trimmer But with shrubs there are thicker branches that the trimmer can’t cut.Then have to resort to loppers or hand saw

The shrub I cut today I wanted to reduce the height The mini chainsaw cut through the branches of the shrub with ease.
My conifer hedge I occasionally come across thicker branches the chain saw will solve that problem. As a general hedge trimmer I will continue to use the cabled trimmer As the chainsaw of that size doesn’t perform as well as the cabled trimmer . I had to go over the hedge and cut the stems that were left with the loppers and hand saw With this little beauty a i can just go back over the hedge and lop off the stems.
The shrub I reduced the height I just took two feet off at one go.
Run time looks to be about one hour. Model is SUPOFFIF Comes with two batteries.

That’s eased my shrub lopping

Get it reported!
Better that the authorities get it than a collector. Any day of the year.

Just signed the contract for our Solar PV/ Battery installation. Will be interesting to see how much We're allowed to export back to the grid.
