Sweeping

I don't know what it is like to sweep the streets in London but I do so love it. They have horrible machines at home, noisily taking up the whole pavement, missing great chunks, driven at walking speed by people wearing safety helmets. The approach above seems so much better, but I have never spoken to a street sweeper so I don't know what they would prefer. I doubt whether they could ever know that I appreciate them so much.
