If trees could talk....

2 GoodGymers made their way 1.4km to help their local community in Redbridge.

... they would have all sorts of stories to tell.

For the trees along the A12 in #Wanstead a LOT of the short stories would contain too many expletives to be able to print them, due to the frequency and volume of rubbish ending up in the undergrowth.

This has become a particular bugbear for Cedric, hence a little session this morning.

Walking past, one does not get the full picture of what is hiding in the undergrowth - we only got 25-30 metres down the path towards the Redbridge roundabout and filled up 13 bags of rubbish in about 2 hours.... few more sessions to come I guess!

P.S... and creative writers out there up for the challenge of making a story out of the underwear and shoes we found today?
