Four of us GoodGym Yorkies assembled on a very windy Friday lunchtime for a litter pick. Lucy was well-equipped with her bag hoop (which she'd received as a present apparently!). We began walking back in the direction most of us had arrived, spotting a good amount of litter in the grass along the cycle path and in the gutters. Max then made us do a detour as he spotted a side alley which was filled with litter. It was good to really make a difference to the appearance of this area in a short space of time, although there were a lot of difficult to reach items stuck behind fences and wedged in the hedges. After an hour we had collected a fairly full and heavy bag of rubbish each and Max was especially pleased with his two toy hammers!
