Finishing a hot day with a hot litter pick!
We all met at Fairlop Waters at the Boathouse and were very much relieved that a cooling breeze was already in the air - made our walk & litter pick rather enjoyable!
We decided to focus on the 'off the beaten path' areas where the rangers don't tend to go and litter pick so ignored the rubbish at the Boathouse and went behind it walking around the perimeter through smaller paths picking up all sorts of things, including a few socks!!! As usual lots of plastic and glass bottles, bags of rubbish, small plastic bits and a few doggy poo bags....
We started the walk with a good old moan about the state of the council, community and litter pickers! Once that was off our chest we just chatted as usual:)
An enjoyable evening out and it was Sharon's 50th good deed, which is fantastic - well done Sharon!
Until next week when we will be in Wanstead helping Marian with odd jobs for Wanstead Gardeneres group:)
