The bizarre sight turned out to be a playful stunt by Aldi as it launches a range of garden must-haves on August 13
A couple were spotted using a leaf blower as a giant fan to keep cool as temperatures soar once again in the UK.
With temperatures reaching a high of 35C this week, one pair found a creative way to stay sweat-free while enjoying the outdoors. The couple were spotted relaxing in the park, with one holding up a leaf blower and using it as an oversized fan to create a much-needed breeze.
On social media, one person joked that the pair were the ‘”UK heatwave final bosses”, while another shared a photo of the pair with the caption: “This couple is living in 2036.”
One wrote: “That’s kind of genius tbf.” Another commented: “Send one my way. Try being menopausal in hot weather. I remember March was nice. That’s my last lovely memory of weather.”
A third added: “The leaf blower may come in handy tonight.” It comes as the UK experiences the hottest day of the week, with warm weather once again sweeping across the country.
The bizarre sight turned out to be a playful stunt by Aldi as it launches a range of garden must-haves on August 13, including its Electric Leaf Blower for £29.99. The supermarket says their Specialbuy is perfect for clearing garden debris, leaves and outdoor spaces with ease.
Julie Ashfield, Chief Commercial Officer at Aldi UK, said: “With temperatures rising again, Brits are getting creative when it comes to keeping cool. The use of the Aldi Leaf Blower might be the best heatwave hack we’ve seen yet.
“Whether you’re looking to tidy up your garden, get ready for summer gatherings or find a little extra breeze on a sunny day, Aldi has you covered with affordable garden essentials – available from August 13.”
