Sick of rubbish eveywhere

February 21, 2007 at 6:05 pm (General)

I just popped out to the local shop and on my way back I noticed everywhere seemed to be strewn with litter.  I’m not sure why I didn’t notice it on the way there, probably too busy thinking about what I needed from the shop.  The more I noticed, the angrier I got.  There were fast food containers, carrier bags, beer cans and various other bits of rubbish. 

The reason for my suddenly noticing it just lately is that about three weeks ago I was walking my dog and when we returned home his paw was bleeding, quite badly.  So the next day off we go to the vets who tells me he has quite badly cut his paw on something very sharp indeed as i has sliced his pad like the type of wound you would expect a razor blade to make, so his guess was it was a tin can.  I am now four hundred and fifty english pounds lighter and my dog, yesterday had his nine stitches removed from his paw and all because some idiot decided he/she would just throw his/her can of pop/beer on the floor and not give a shit.  From what I am noticing more and more these idiots are growing in number!!

    Thanks for the welcome Minx. I’d call myself more a wannabe writer :-)

    We have the same problem with litter. What I find equally disturbing is that, although there are bye-laws governing leaving litter, no one ever enforces them.

    Hey, you have passed the wannabe, as your posts show, you are a writer :-)

    But then there are laws against everything now, how could anybody possibly enforce all the legislation the government has brought in. There is so much of it I am starting to wonder if anything in the UK is legal anymore :-)
