Four OWLs took part in today’s litterpick.
We set off with our usual determination to rid the cruising ground of all litter. Especially ‘sexual debris’ litter such as condoms, condom wrappers, lube sachets and tissues. These can be offensive to others and become the cause of complaints.
It’s always irritating when rubbish sacks and bins are available and litter is chucked on the ground near, but not in, a sack or bin. But in this case we know that the area around the bin was clear of litter late last night and suspect that a fox has been helping itself to the food in the bin
Not sure if these are in memory of someone or they are an attempt to claim someone’s heart. Nice flowers though. The buds not even open yet. We are wondering what £7-worth of flowers might lead to.
You get all sorts cruising in the woods. Anyone into Brits who are bears?!
Our volunteer litterpickers made good progress.
Until eventually it was time for the welcome refreshments.
Then a bit more litterpicking for two of our volunteers. With this amount of turmeric, part of the contents of a broken jar, it looks like someone wanted to spice up their sex life!
Lost a Front Door key while you were in the woods? We’ve got it. Contact us and as long as you can prove it’s yours we’ll get it back to you.
Another excellent morning of litterpicking. Here’s our haul.
We reckon we collected the equivalent of 21 of our usual-size sacks of rubbish today. Add on the 9 we collected last Tuesday and the 20 collected by our lovely ‘solo’ litterpickers and that’s a total of 50 sacks of rubbish. Impressive! (but did it need to be there in the first place…………..?).
