I was watching a council worker use one of these in the park the other
day. As he was blowing all the leaves over to one corner a fresh load
fell and replaced the ones that has been blown. And the blown ones
were being blown to another part of the park. What a complete waste of
time and public money! Not to mention the stupid idea of using such a
contraption in the first place, the damage to the environment caused
by the combustion engine etc.
If you ask me such items are up there with patio heaters....
