A relaxed meander around Alexandra Park, picking up litter from the bushes, being thanked by dog walkers, joined by a teen and persuading Wilson to try out the monkey bars!

All the usual suspects were found this evening: face masks, plastic, glass, crisp packets and cans. Plus a Wilson tennis ball (claimed by Wilson but carried in Vicki's useful pouch). An early find was three halves of avocado. 🥑 We also found 2 socks (not a pair), a child's sun top and a dummy! Thanks to whoever left that behind, helped with the report title!

Katie L was on recycling duty and Rachel had the big bin bag so was unfortunate to have the full poo bags put in there. 💩

A warm evening spent with good people! A rich tea biscuit was the final find and although it was then dinner time, no-one was tempted to eat it.... but there might be some rich tea fingers going into people's shopping this week!
