Public spirited

The railings in the area around Upney Station have recently been replaced and very smart the new ones look, too.

However, at the steps to/from Lambourne Road, the council didn't take the opportunity to clear the large amount of litter in the green space next to the steps. The workers pushed the litter away to a line a couple of feet from the steps and there it stayed.

This morning, I saw one public spirited man with an orange bag (recycling) picking up some of the litter - presumably the recyclable bits. Good on him! If only there were more like that - or even better fewer oiks chucking their empty cans, bottles, etc on the floor wherever they feel like it.
