This week there was a last minute change of plans as our task owner wasn't available so it was time for a plogging circuit with this week's Three Amigos: Martin, Duncan and David.

We picked the litter we found as we worked our way along the streets in the Dallow direction, popping handfuls of rubbish in the bins we found along the way. occasionally stopping to deal with particularly bad spots. When we got to Dallow Downs we went through the woods and up the hill to Winsdon Hill. No bins on this section but tons of trash so it didn't look like we could help much. But then what's that? Among the trees someone had helpfully dumped a wheelie bin, just what we needed to get the waste out of the woods.

Working our way up the hill with the wheelie bin getting heavier as we went we arrived at the top with a full load. Back on tarmac we carried on through Farley Hill, across to Stockwood Park and then back downhill into town to complete a litter-free loop.
