Optimistically set the max Amps at 40A just for a laugh as no chance of that until next Spring. Will address cabling issued to cope with the extra Spring Amps later this year.
But you must remember not to get run over by a bus before spring !, OK, I guess the worst thing that will happen is the existing fuse will blow.
I keep meaning to write an "Idiots Guide to Nowty Towers", just in case of the proverbial bus accident myself.
Your getting home story reminds me of my mate about 15 years ago, returning from a paragliding holiday in Oludeniz, SW Turkey, he returned a few days earlier but his return flight was either 23:55 or 00:05. I cannot remember which but as you can probably guess, he got the right time but the wrong day and turned up at Dalaman airport a day late.
He was flying back to Gatwick, he didn't have a mobile phone, or any spare cash and arrived in a pre booked transfer to the airport on Saturday night. The only flight available to him was to Newcastle at 5:00am and was about £80. He got his debit card out but the staff said the computers were down and were unlikely to be back until Monday morning, but there was a cash machine outside. He attempted the cash machine but it retained his card. In the end he had to go round random strangers and beg to borrow the £80 in cash to pay for the flight. Someone did lend him the money but when he arrived at Newcastle he had no card and no cash to get the train. He thought he would just blag it but he wasn't allowed on the train so he had to borrow someone's phone to phone his sister in Brittany, France because that was the only number he could remember. She managed to call the train station and buy his ticket. That got him home to near Southampton, luckily he literally lives 100m from a train station. But then after getting home very late on Sunday night, he still had to get the train to Gatwick the following evening to retrieve his car after work and pay a penalty fee for picking his car up late.
I cannot remember if this photo was from the same holiday because I went there about 3 times back then.
