We only had two OWLs available to undertake today’s litterpick – several had other commitments. So it was lucky that another OWL colleague had spent a few hours cleaning up the area last Saturday.
We’ve had so much experience that we reckon we could probably do much of our litterpicking blindfolded! (several OWLs are pretty good at finding what they are looking for at Snaresbrook when it’s dark!). However recently any of us has done a litterpick there’s always more to do.
Obviously popular facilities here. Jut a shame that the facility of the rubbish sack isn’t obvious to some.
Working hard deserves a break to refuel and reload!
Next, off for more. Then a return to base, the tying of the bags and delivery to the road for collection by our friendly Forest Wardens.
The equivalent of 7 regular-size sacks collected today. Our ‘solo pickers’ have worked exceptionally hard since the last group litterpick, collecting a total of the equivalent of 42 of our regular-sized sacks between them. So in total FORTY SEVEN sacks in the last month. Brilliant! (but at the same time disappointing as so much of the rubbish could have been put into one of our resident sacks in hotspots, or into one of the bins)
