Some Whisper, Some Roar

I am on a course in central London, and I have to note, before I forget, the awesome power of the hand drier in the toilets. In my experience there are some that are barely worth the effort or wiring them up - mild warm zephyrs that only really work if your hands are already dry. Others are a bit better, and will dry your hands to a sort of warm dampness after a minute or so of hand rubbing and shaking.

These are something else. They sound (and feel) like a jet engine starting up. Flesh ripples in the blast and water droplets fly off the hands. The arms ache after a few seconds of straining against the blast. I must get a video.
