I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.

maybe you could grab a putter and a few golf balls, and set it to "forward" mode, then smack the golf balls into the scoop, and see if you can get the golf balls into the tub

Sweet! A snow vacuum that sucks all the snow off your plants and lays it all nice and even on your driveway, while you walk backwards so you don't leave footprints! It might catch on, you know!

In a complete hijack of the post, but very thinly linked by use of the word 'Chav', I was made aware of this little clip.It may well provoke lively debate, which lets face it is what forums are all about.
I will not make any comment on it, other than I found it amusing
