Goodness me, to put it mildly. hasn't anyone invented the brush here.. I currently have at least 3 or maybe 4 of these leaf blowers on the go all around me.Not to mention a lawn mower and the street sweeping lorry on its third lap around Avenue Paris..however on the positive side there isn't a cloud in the sky.
 
Leaf blowng machine

Yes, the leaf blowing machine person and the street sweeping machine, working in tandem is a great example of how to blow leaves and general rubbish under all the parked cars whilst the street sweeping machine goes past, missing it all!! :)
Great idea in theory but not that good in practice!

There are at least 2 with brushes doing the rounds, one usually comes up my road after the blower and lorry have been, it must be the cleanest road in the Port ;).

Count yourself lucky. those sweeping machines are a hell of a lot quieter than the old models from a few years back and I always have a good laugh on windy days. The rubbish gets blown back to where he has just moved it from. Bless em.
 
leaf blowers

At least they try, which is a damn site more than were we live. The last time we saw a street cleaner/sweeper of any description it was horse drawn. :)
 
We saw the blower man and the road sweeper every morning on the road outside la cabana. My little boy (4) loved watching them. He'd just follow them on the beach!
I thought they where fairly quiet. Not as noisy as in England!
