A good day for litterpicking – the weather was perfect. Some of our volunteer OWLs must have been sunbathing as there were just three OWLs for this litterpick.
Into the woods to collect the range of litter we OWLs are used to collecting at our litterpicks. Bottles and cans, food containers, and the usual range of sexual debris – condoms, condom foils, lube sachets, tissues and wipes. Lots of wipes. How ironic that so many were collected on the day that the ban on wipes containing plastic was announced.
First half over it was time to return to base for refreshments, along with a couple of welcome visitors. What a selection! Sausage rolls, Hot Cross Buns, chocolate biscuits, gold chocolate bunnies and hot drinks! The OWLs know how to cater!!!
Then back to the woods for more. And then the final sealing of the bags and putting them at the roadside ready for collection.
The final tally – the equivalent of 17 regular sacks today. And with 14 sacks collected by our Solo OWLs a total of 31 sacks of litter for the last month.
