The trolley dolly is out and about

Hello.

I had a couple of hours litter picking this afternoon on the Industrial Estate. I was wearing too many layers, and it was hot hot hot. Had to take my jumper off. That's one bag filled. Time for a break, a banana and a drink of water. 

Now ready to fill the second bag. I think two is enough today. 

I found a couple of carrier bags, so I filled them as well. This is one end of a long road which goes through the estate. It's quite busy with trucks going in and out of the factories and warehouses. There's still a lot more litter to pick. I'll go back when I have time to do it. 

I dropped my pickings off at my usual spot next to the litter bin at the big pond. I see that the Council has picked up the bags I put there on Monday. 

This job suits me. I can go when I like, where I like, and for how long I like. I can fill one bag, or several, depending how long I want to do it for. I can stop when I am fed up, and I don't have to pick at the same spot. I can move around doing a bit here and a bit there. Other people are happier to do it in groups. I am happier working alone. It's becoming a popular pastime now. I wonder if there will come a time when the volunteer pickers will pick up more litter than what is dropped. I think that's a long way off, but it would be good if at least people notice that more places are free of litter. 

Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip.   ilona
