We joined Scott from People & Stories and John from Action Asylum with his team of volunteers for a shore clean this morning.

Most of our finds were rather uninspiring but standard - lolly sticks, vapes, McDonalds ketchup containers amongst a huge amount of microplastic nurdles. Rather appropriately for Armistice Day, Jen and Action Asylum volunteer Adam found a carrier bag containing an Army Brigadier uniform. John and Catherine had some military know-how and were able to work out some details from the buttons.

The sun shining made for a lovely morning out know the shoreline. Thanks to Scott and John for inviting us to join.

Area Activator for GoodGym Portsmouth. I swear like a sailor, burp like a foghorn. Human A - Z of Portsmouth. Ultimately charming.
