Autumn is coming and our 50 odd bamboos plus 40 palms and assorted giant leaf shedding trees are getting ready to shed their leaves all over the place, where can I buy a leaf sweeper? Not a leaf blower or an electric leaf sucker but a machine with revolving brushes that you push and it picks up leaves and deposits them in a giant bag.

Before anyone says it yes I know I already have one but she is getting tired as well!!

I have checked all the HomeMart, Pro shops around Pattaya but not a one to be found.

What you are looking for is called a "Billy Goat" in north America... I have not seen then here in Thailand...

Since option 2 is getting tired too, you might consider hiring some local Thai labour, to do it... surely some young willing workers around?

I've nothing to do, if you want a rest from watching your wife. I could spell you.

Love the replies guys, It's about what I figured.

Last nights storm really dropped some leaves around the house so it looks like I might just need some help watching my wife later in the week, If I get too tired I'll have to call you. thanks for the offer

look for gardeners on the neighbouring posh estate, they should have a mashine and come sometimes, for example once a week.

also some neighbours might be interested to sweep and take those leafes for composting, you might even not have to pay them for the job or very little.

Was a thread in Ko Samui Forum a while ago.

Contact Roo, if he's happy with his one and for purchase contact.
