Blather, Waffle and Poppycock!

On my bike rides and walks over the past few days, I have noticed a large increase in dog poo bags chucked into hedgrows etc, plus disposable face masks all over the place .

- yes - my wife has noticed the same with the dog poo bags on a walk she has been doing throughout lock-down. This disgusting habit seems to e on the increase.
She took photos and sent them into the local council and they have put up new 'dog-poo bins' at the worst sights. It seems to have had a limited effect.

Maybe it is all these new lock-down dog owners we are hearing about in the press?

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

There are also lots of discarded masks.

[sultanbev]

Even finding discarded masks on my allotment, which is no where near any public accessable footpaths 

[Steve J]

We see discarded poo bags when there are bins located less than 100m away .

[Techno II]

Not seen any poo bags 'hanging around'*.....But HAVE noticed a small number of (mainly) disposable face masks littering car parks.

I'll give folk the benefit of believing most of those have fallen out of a pocket...rather than them just having been slung on the ground.

Cheers - Phil.

* Chucking them into trees and bushes is appalling !

Used to be roaches, beer cans and expended prophylactics but since they gated the road to the church parking lot it's very clean (except for the deer droppings).

Who is smoking deer?

Who is smoking deer?

Pretty much anyone with a rifle

That time of year again when an the clocks get all mixed up and steal an hour of the day from us.

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Yes we should leave the hour on all the time.

[Steve J]

Ah, the joys of longer evenings .

[fsn]

Let's face it. Nobody likes the clock going forward, but people love the extra hour in bed in the autumn.

We should dispense with the going forward and keep the going back.

What could go wrong?

I often thought this myself, but have since come up with what I feel is a much superior solution. Rather than moving the clock forward an hour in spring, why don't we move it back 23 hours? Then you get a whole extra Saturday to celebrate the start of spring. Gives every one an extra day to adjust to the change.

I see no flaws with this, can't believe we're not doing it...
