Volunteering

Good morning. It was far too hot yesterday to go out of the village and do a 'boots on' walk across the fields. I did it the day before and nearly gave up. I was jiggered by the time I eventually got back home. 

I like to get out of the house at least once a day, so any excuse to lock up and leave it behind, even for a short time, refreshes my soul. I like to think I have made an effort and done something worthwhile. 

So yesterday I did a litter pick. I have the stick and the carrier bag, and I know there will be one or two people about that I can pass the time of day with. 

A new fancy pink bin appeared a week ago on the corner of the High Street. outside the Parish Office. Investigation is needed I thought, what's it all about. One bin to deposit litter, and a cupboard with equipment inside to help anyone to wishes to volunteer to do the job. 

Yellow vests, gloves, red sacks, plastic hoops to assist the carrying of the sacks, and three litter picking sticks. All very organised. 

Several people have said on the village page that it is a good idea. I am trying to be more optimistic about the idea that people will help themselves to the equipment, do the job, and put it all back again. I am not so sure that will happen. 

There isn't a lot of litter in the village itself. I can go around it and maybe fill a supermarket plastic bag for life and empty it in a bin. There isn't enough to fill a plastic sack, and if it does become full it will become too heavy to carry, even with a plastic hoop around the top. I don't need gloves or a yellow vest. The council have to be seen following Health and Safety rules I suppose. If anyone wants to seriously do any litter picking they will have to walk out of the village and check the surrounding grass verges. 

The pink bin has been there about a week. Let's see if it is used, and check whether the equipment is still there. 

I did manage to get a proper walk in last night, at 8.30pm when it had cooled down a bit. It was just the right temperature with a light breeze. Ideal conditions. 

Have a good weekend. Toodle pip.   ilona
