Fed up with raking leaves?

[SueEllen]

Some twonk was on the PM programme divulging the info that they can't say how much this costs.

It's apparently cheaper than getting one of the 2 gardeners they employ collecting the leaves up as they fall down.

"The leaves are removed each winter as a more time-efficient alternative to raking fallen leaves."

And it's not 1st April

The most amusing part of the story is that the leaves are picked of the trees and dropped on the ground before being collected.

I wish, in cloggers I have a postage stamp garden with no lawn. Well compared to my garden in blighty its postage stamp.

Will just have to rake em up, nowt much else I can do.

Set your lawnmower on the highest cut setting and use it to vacuum your leaves up. It will mulch them at the same time for you to spread in your beds or for the composer heap. Use a sprinkling of Garrotta to start off the composting process and add your kitchen scraps, egg shells to the heap (no meat or fish though). GQT 🍁🌿🍂🌾🍀🌱🌲🌳🌹🔯

Can they come around and do my garden?

I've given up until the trees in the garden have finished I'll then go and sort the leaves out

No really, they are.

I wouldn't fancy doing those big feckers in the background.
