Poo bags & Golf balls, the tale of a Monday morning
1 GoodGymer made their way to help their local community in Redbridge.
- Monday, 4th of January 2021

New year, new start to the neverending project of tidying up forest & fields... One sign that a more regular approach is needed - one of the bins was overflowing with poo bags! So much so, it was too heavy to lift and will have to be sorted in stages.
Besides the usual of drinks cans & chocolate wrappers, it turns out the fly tippers do appreciate their vodka - at least 4 large (empty) bottles of Smirnov were found. The other item catching the attention were 8 golf balls - often find one or 2, but never this amount!
5 binbags worth of rubbish found its way safely into the large bin, before a muddy run along the river to round off this productive morning.
