Another opportunity to clean up the cruising area and four of our stalwart volunteers were there to do it.
As usual, with experienced volunteers, we were able to make good progress. And we couldn’t help noticing that, even at this time of year when the whole area is popular for a wide range of activities by a wide range of users, there was much less litter of all kinds – and especially sexual debris – than we might have expected.
Naturally, some of the ‘hot spots’ had been host to some very hot activity.
Just one of the regular hotspots
Good to know the facility is being well-used. Just a pity that some users continue to do something as simple as dropping their used goods in a bin, or taking them away.
A good first-half and we headed back to base for well-earned refreshments. Always appreciated and always ample choice thanks to the generosity of members of the group.
The traditional spot for our refreshments!
The second half of our litterpick was just as productive – and just as much fun. We don’t take ourselves too seriously (is it possible to be very serious when picking up the intimate items – often still covered in bodily substances! – of last night’s or yesterday’s shag?!). In fact the gentle banter and genial conversations seem to make time pass very quickly.
And our final haul for this litterpick – a very respectable 19 sacks.
