Litter Backies Book

After some minor disputes regarding the actual meeting place, we all agreed that Ed was right all along and we were where we were supposed to be.

We then swiftly split into 3 groups, in the pursuit of 'litter hotspots' spread throughout the backies. Team 1 led by Bec headed towards the Clifton way entrance and tackled hotspot 1. Fortunately the were aided by scout leader Michael, who issued a stern telling off to some apple-throwing youths.

Team 2, led by Amy, headed towards the pond and a popular littering bench for hot spot 2. After much wrestling with spikey things the were soon filling up their bags with empty beer cans.

Whilst team 3 'led' by Ed wandered through the woods (which had almost certainly been litter-picked recently) looking for 2 metal benches that we were beginning to think didn't actually exist!

Fortunately Legendary Leanne lived up to her name and spotted the benches and a litter-picker's jackpot. Amongst the haul Johnny B snaffled a load of torn up exercise books as well as a copy of Roald Dahl's 'Boy'.

The 3 teams then regrouped back at the meeting place before some headed out for a social run.
