Hand dryers


I was preparing myself for work today, while listening to an entertaining podcast of a BBC 6 Radio show called the Russell Howard show, a funny comedian that you can catch regularly on Mock the week. Anyway, they were talking about handdryers, particularly the Dyson Air blade and how its a fantastic device, like the fastest dryer ever.....and then they went into talking about some study Dyson had prepared in how people from the west are more likely to shake hands and so put less water on their hands, hence it takes less time for them to be dry, and with an Airblade thing then it takes seconds....while in Asia, where they are more likely to bow when greeting, they are liberal with the water and so they aren't as concerned having wet paws.

The point of me blogging about this is that I have used the airblade and its pretty cool....theres one in Dukes Hotel.....go and try it for yourself.
