I'm waiting on delivery of a leaf blower thing that runs off of my makita batteries. I have a 240v pet dryer but can never be arsed to run extension leads to use it, so hopefully this one will do the job.

Had a slight change of plan on the new Rukka kit ;)

While browsing the web that evening i stumbled across a pair of Rukka Kallavesi ADV type Trousers with full venting, reinforced panels, etc etc at half price so just 100 quid above the basic Road R ones. Turns out they were the last ones in the UK in my size at that silly price as they are a discontinued line so they were bought and the basic Road R ones returned

Very happy :thumbup:
