Leaf-blowers, Shirley?

Neighbour’s been creating a massive racket with his for the past hour without it seeming to actually do anything except blow the same pile of leaves around 50m to another bit of grass where the wind swirls the heap apart again …

They are certainly not all they are cracked up to be. One of those semi-circular rakes will usually do the trick. But blowers are useful if you want perfection on things like driveways.

In your neighbour's case a rake would be the better option

Horrible polluting things. See also patio heaters.

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

Lost it in house move, but I used to use a canvas sheet like this

https://www.coversandall.co.uk/tarpaulins-curtains/custom-tarpaulins/custom-canv

which you could just rake stuff onto, lift the corners (it had handles, but your own can be attached), take away & leave wherever you wanted.

Job done in 10 mins, no noise, no carbon footprint (dread to think what a leafblower's is).

Can I please add chewing gum on to the list of pointless things.

The flavour only last for around thirty seconds and you’re left chewing elastic. And a lot of it ends up on the pavement.

Plus the leaves are good for your garden and all the bugs and stuff.

Leaves are good for the garden when well rotted down, yes (and good for insects whilst decomposing) but be wary of putting freshly fallen leaves on beds as a mulch, they tend to leach a lot of nitrogen out of the soil - or that's what I read a couple of years ago anyway 👍
