Litterpicking

 Good evening. 

We have had sunshine today, yipeeee. Now what shall I do this afternoon. I could go to the Humber Bridge and have a walk over there. I am keen to see how the traffic is coping now that they have no toll booths to go through. It's probably running quite smoothly on a Saturday, the test will be on a Monday morning when everyone is making their way to work. At busy times there are hold ups on the North Bank due to volume of traffic. Another test will be how the computers will cope when everyone wants to upload an app to set up their account. Will people be paying for their journey before they cross, or after. We shall see how many fail to pay, and get a fine. 

I decided to do some more litter picking today. I got the bus to the next village and started from there. I knew there was going to be a lot on the grass verges as I saw it last week. It was bugging me. Must go and tidy up. 

I filled my bag four times. It gets quite heavy if there are glass bottles to pick up. I emptied this one at the bin behind the cafe in the Park. 

Off I went again. Sometimes dodging the traffic as there are no pavements along most of it. Thank goodness I have a yellow vest. Filled the bag again. I'll give you one guess what is in the crumpled and dirty plastic bottle.
  
Back in my village to empty my bag for the fourth time. I will get a bigger bag for the next litter pick I do. 
It wasn't quite dark when I got home, just time to do a dog walk. Billy was excited to see me as always. 
Mayze is making good progress. She has eaten well, and seems to have perked up a lot. She is sat by my side right now, waiting for me to finish this so we can have a cuddle. I have been watching some Ben Fogle alternative lifestyle documentaries. 
Thanks for popping in. Have a good Sunday. Toodle pip.   ilona
