The photo I took to the the left was taken in January 2010. Yes I may be moaning again but in January 2020 Ten years later I am absolutley appauled at the disrespect people in general have for Wildlife, Countryside, Places where other people live and generally don't give a flying S*** .  I am sorry if my  strong language offends. My circumstances have changed a little bit in the last 6 months, which is allowing me more time to take more notice of what is happening around me. With reference to litter The photo to the left is mild to what we suddenly have. Its OK to moan about it but what am I going to do about it.
