Not sure if that was a dig, as I'm an electrical engineer with an three phase 80A test panel with amp meters, even a 1300w vac exceeds that on start. You shouldn't ideally be using any fused plugs, blue are for a fused feed/supply preferred type c/d slower trip time. A small cable to the splitter is fine as they're designed to be used near a suitable outlet, not at 50m as it's the starting amps you want to be worried about probably 75+ (4.5x). At 50m with voltage drop and high amps = more amps and burning cable when you factor in 15A x 4.5 at 220 Vs 240.

Flail or large rotary, preferably livestock. Gang mowers are more for parks that are done regularly.

Well here's the question peds, seeing I'm of the generation that grew up with all this modern stuff including Quake, Doom, Facebook and WhatsApp were later but we still has ICQ, MSN messenger etc. Why don't you explain the variable that's missed my generation and made recent kids so soft and mentally unstable then ?. Whilst you might scoff at my chiselled resilience from having been physical and verbal bullied, everyone else would have equally seen it and kept their heads down.
-
Quite happy to admit I'm 42, I'll admit I had old school grandparents that also instilled that stuff upper lip. Everyone blames social media, but I'm the age where we were the guinea pigs of pretty much it all including video games so real you can taste it. The obsession with talking about your feelings in my blame on my mind. And maybe thicko vacuous pretty boys types on TV.

Modern that was 30 years ago.

I've had plenty of beatings during secondary, as did plenty of other from the same group of feral bullies one even put someone in the hospital with a metal lab stand from vague memory. Where did I say kids should be beaten?. Well......... As the saying goes two eyes, two ears one mouth
-
Keep telling yourself that while you cry into you soya latte. As per you three, you seem to always go to the extreme, instead of actually reading the words written you Assume. DID i say anything about physical, well... NO I didn't did I.
-
As usual you and Peds always have to go to the absolute extremes, where did I say extremes ?. Where did I advocate beating or beasting?. The answer for those that can't read, is I didn't you just automatically assumed it. As for the bs extreme scenario, I came out fine. Those that did the beating mostly ended up drunk, druggies or prison.
-
Better than teaching them that the world ending and on fire, like you would!. You've obviously never worked in a workshop or large low paid organisation prior to 2008, no bullying but plenty of taking the P**s.
-
If you want to use the term man up, it's about swallowing what the world throws at you and keep on going without loosing your cool. It's not about creating hard men it's about creating individual resilience, the ability to deal with whatever is thrown at you, when even the army asks your pronouns we know the slippery slope is more a vertical drop.
-
You know you've just reinforced my argument, snowflakes and most activists have zero emotional control!. Maybe instead of having a little paddy & stomping your feet, you form an actual argument or has gentle parenting ruined you ?.
-
Yes peds you're repeated repertoire or BS and being a Divvy are well documented. The AI equivalent of a skipping record, coupled with maybe a few too many years of sniffing your own farts/ joss sticks and smoking burnt banana skins because they wouldn't let you buy paint thinner.
-
There is practically zero bullying in schools of today, that's the problem you completely lack nuance everything in your mind is binary far left or far right. Would you like to back up that italics "Ruined" allegation?
-
Because my world view is more aligned to the actual realities of the world, makes it reality. You're snowflake style sensibilities are what's wrong with society, people need a hardship to build resilience instead of asking about feelings and using it as excuses. I was bullied, for lack of a better word it battle hardened me for a life in the real world. There's a quote "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times.”
-
Great another of today's meaningless social media buzz words, trauma. We all deal with life, good or bad and we carry on and we don't use it as a crutch like you see in social media. Bullying is something that's missing in today's schools, it's what hardens you and makes you more resilient.
-
Just highlighting you selective and obviously biased recollections, sure you're not called Paula or Nicola for your ability to forget lots of important things but remember the colour of the carpet and how many sugar cubes you had ?.
-
An X ray of Kamala will be like the Simpsons episode with a crayon stuck up his nose. Maybe the secrets involved "Mrs Obama". Someone described the way she spoke as like you would to a primary school child.
-
Think your mixing up biden withdrawing from Afghanistan, that RPG to a helicopter of Tier 1 wasn't that a Joe slip of the tongue ?. And the showers with nieces, yeah a blinkered ostrich because it doesn't fit your world view of love harmony and probably real socialism. If you could vote it's Trump or Kamala, no if or buts thems you're choice!.
-
Personally I think Trump isn't necessarily all bad, a ruthless business man, yes. But ordained Saints & Buddhist monks won't get anything done, in today's world it's probably a positive to have someone like trump. A swordfish style Gabriel keeps things in order. Compare the virtue signalling of Trudeau & Arden, all softy softly veneer over BS and happy to screw their country for the overlords.
-
Completely ignoring the video of biden sniffing kids hair on stage, allegations of showers with grand children, being senile and as my mother describes it walking around like Thunderbirds. A drug huffing cocaine addict of a son that left coke down the back of a sofa in the whitehouse, dodgy deals with his son paying "the big man" commission of his abroad deals and appointments to a gas company etc. Yeah, let's not even look at the Clinton's and Haiti. Kamala or Trump, them's the choices. Talk about a blinkered viewpoint, but Trump is always the bad man. Yeah, whatever.
-
I'm guessing Kamala will be having the "Stars" of Hocus Pocus instead ?. I've generally made an effort to avoid anyone with a chalk board laugh, be it actual laughing or just nervous.
-
I'm surprised they're not in the JCB official shop, with LEDs and reverse beep ?.

Every sheet has two sides 😉

Depends on if it's Canadian beach poop, I'll let you Google that horrendous news story.

Great, yet another part to fail on the long list. If it's getting to be that much of a problem, you're probably already overweight and are going to get pulled by VOSA. Using them for say the catering I can understand, but might be a time to go bigger.
