Burn 'em. I saw the Queen's gardener at Buck House using a flame gun on
a gravel path - and if it's good enough for her....

Quick update for you all.

I went out and bought a blower/vac and its great. It blew all the leaves off the drive onto the concrete path in a matter of minutes. It was then a 5 minute job got sweep them up and bung them in the recycling bin.

Did you get one with a shredding mode? That really compresses the
bulk into a tenth of its original size and produces a nice texture
which I am sure the worms would appreciate.

I bought a Viking blower/sucker. Not sure of the model number as its in the shed and I'm at work but its pretty darned powerfull. I think Viking is rebadged Stehl? Not sure if i spelt that correctly? t's blowing ability is much better than its sucking and it has a built in mulcher as well.
