Meet at the entrance to Asda Supermarket on Dock Road at 1000 hrs. Work our way down to the lake, assess the situation, then get picking. Hello everyone, Well done, great effort, we collected 13 bags, two bikes, one scooter and an old bed spring. The disappointing part of this litterpick was at the end of the pick waiting for the streetscene people to come and collect the rubbish. A group of 6 to 8 boys were intent on trying to intimidate us by taking litterpicks and upset the collected rubbish. Fortunately, we never succumbed to this and we stayed there until 1330 hrs. The rubbish had still not been picked up and we felt uneasy about leaving it. Good news is that we have just checked this morning and it has all been taken away except for the cone and the lake and surrounding area is looking very nice. Once again thanks, anything you wish to discuss just email me, richardgowen2002@yahoo.uk Cheers, Richard.
