Well as an update, it has been reordered and stuck in a black hole at Evri since 22nd

Glad I ordered everything else to start the job on the 22nd :(

Yeah it is a real shame. It has put TS on the no-go for delivery. They are my go-to for in-person though. The last order I placed I received 3 separate Evri deliveries over the course of 3 working days...

I just cannot work this one out and has been so much against the grain, when it comes to TS and Evri for me...

My suspicion is Evri have taken all the non broken parts from the rejected delivery and TS have put a halt to all movements, until an investigation has been completed.

Lucky for me I have the delivery (showing open box leaving Evri vehicle) to our whole conversation and its return to the vehicle, saved from my video doorbell.

Once all settled I'll push for compo

How is the battery chainsaw? I'm tempted by one for odds and sods (any major /elevated work I'd get tree surgeon in)

Ive never used a chainsaw before and a bit safety lax.... But so far been fine with lots of angle grinder'ing etc. Dont know if chainsaw trousers etc is necessary for fairly menial home based work.

I've got a battery chainsaw, milwaukee 30 cm bar. It's great and will chew through some big tree trunks. It also chews through batteries. I've got a 8ah high output one which last about 20 min.
 
Bit more tree trimming.

Then ran the SWA from the house to the Gazebo so I can wire in some lighting and patio heaters

Are you learning macrame?
 
I've built a planter which I've secured to the fence. It's about waist height.
Doing another today, just need to go and collect 4 decking boards.

Also, I'll be installing three external double sockets today. Just missing the longer drill bit to get through the garage wall.

Today will be a productive day, as long as the rain stays away.

Did you line the planter with plastic sheet or as I will be doing soon, with plastic bins with the bottom removed.
