This has been said B4 but I love repeats ;D If you have a domestic electric strimmer then consider a generator, someone on here bought a brand new light weight genny for as little as £50, you can then make good use of all your domestic power tools up the lottie like mowers, drills, power saws, strimmers, even rotovator if electric. ;)
I don't know about the rest of you, but I go to my plot for a bit of peace and quiet! Quick bursts on a strimmer might be bearable; a generator and loads of power tools are surely going a bit far...
weekends and school holidays our petrol tools are hushed by the sound of boy motorbikers that appear not to have silencers fitted to their machines.

I understand the desire for peace, but I view an allotment as a working space, geared fr teh production of food, and as such view all the noices that come with it as part and parcel of its istigkeit.
