Joined group of volunteers on foggy Sunday morning for village clean up. 500 yards of verge, both sides, on road into village found 6 empty vodka bottles. Could only have been tossed from a car as there is no footpath along there. Driving under influence?
Worse 20 yards stretch outside a very posh detached house with a drive full of expensive cars. Whole bag of rubbish collected on verge outside which they drive past to get into their entrance.
Life can be so worrying!!!
I live very near to the 'South downs' and despair at the amount of plastic bags and rubbish in the hedgerows. I can't understand why the council do not arrange for it to be picked up. I'm sure there would be an army of volunteers if they advertised.

The parish council were supposed to advertise. The "staff" managed 2 posters in a very spread out village. Hopeless.
DeleteI just cannot understand why anyone would throw things out their car windows! Besides being illegal (here in my part of the US), it is just plain rude.
ReplyDeleteThe schools I worked in always did a trash pick up every year. It is amazing to me how people can let that stuff just linger.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
School area is worse and their grounds are reported as even worse.
Deleteim baffled by the fact we have mcdonalds wrappers thrown in the lane every day , we live in the bog end of nowhere and the nearest mcdonalds is 15 miles away
ReplyDeleteWe get loads too. I want to know how much tax they pay to UK government towards litter!
