With my daughter being vegan, if she wants any of that stuff she just refers to it as “pretend chicken” or whatever the meat is supposed to be.
We couldn't even switch the lights off properly. But the championship is more our level, so *shrugs*.
TV adverts are something I avoid. Usually I channel swap using the “back” button and, because I mostly watch repeats, I can happily watch 2 channels and fill in the bits so long as ads aren’t synchronised. I’ve taken on a LG smart TV. I am 100% convinced that it is programmed to prevent the back button swapping off a movie channel (Freeview 33) once that channel has been playing for more than one minute. Less than a minute I can swap back and forth as much as I like. It works perfectly otherwise. It is driving me mad!
Surely Matt Hancock's brother's wife's uncle's sister-in-law's cousin's son could source some dodgy PPE for them? All at vast expense to the tax-payer....... and, of course, wholly unfit for purpose.
There's someone near us who seems to think that everyone in the vicinity wants nothing more than to hear the sound of revving chainsaws every weekend - and in the summer, every evening and weekend.
Not unless your (friend's) chainsaw is so loud that the sound travels the best part of 200 miles, Steve!
If people are stupid enough to use a chainsaw without PPE surely that is their lookout. However, I regularly see PPE symbols on things I buy, sometimes I agree with the need for it but mostly the don’t. For example, PPE to tap a hole? The best protection for the job is to know what you are doing. If I buy cable, fuses, plugs etc. there is always a label saying “consult a qualified electrician”, I tend to think 45 years in avionics is qualification enough, if the job needs certification I’ll find someone with the right paperwork. I haven’t needed to use a chainsaw but if I did I would get the right PPE, I rather like having the issued number of arms and legs.
One is never accused of being a glory-hunter following Watford and St. Johnstone but after their relative successes last season the last few weeks have been just one long WTF moment.
I have never needed the use of a chainsaw but there are often occasions where the use of a chainsaw saves a lot of hard work. Rather than get the right PPE, training, and chainsaw, I ask someone else to use a chainsaw and a retire to a safe distance.
I have three different chainsaws for different jobs, but I ALWAYS wear a facemask when I'm using one.
Depending upon what I am cutting and constraints of space I either use a Silky Zubat (390mm or 240mm) pull saw or a bow saw. and suitable boots and leggings one hopes.
I'm past grinding my gears about Boris and his gang having yet another lockdown party, but how long do we have to put up with his toadies ignoring the fact that if something quacks like a duck, waddles like a duck, and swims like a duck, it is most likely a duck.
