Living close to a large park, we seem to be on a dog walk route. When the hedge next to our drive loses it's leaves in autumn, there are more poo bags than there was leaves. Annoyingly there's a bin just a few metres away. Owners obviously think they've hidden it behind the leaves. Looks ****ing awful.
I wouldn't be at all surprised to find that it's the same almost every year, and that's with a low key approach being the Police instruction for Ladies Day, and we all know it's the opposite for football.
In that case, hats off to you Castro, my cap is well and truly doffed. A man who can take time out of his busy day to post things, which everybody already knows, is a true gent. You sir are one of Bridlingtons finest.
I should have said everyone with an IQ which can't be reached with a single dart. Which would rule out quite a few. Must go, have to read all the ITK postings about transfers and other things which everyone with an Internet connection will already be aware of. Which is everybody on here.
On the dog ****e thing... If it's on a path or near Askew's hedge or, indeed, anywhere where someone may potentially stand in it, then I'll bag it and bin it as current social nicety demands. Only if me own dog's done it obvs. I'm not like some kind of altruistic ****e-based cleansing Jonny or nothing. However, the act of bag it, bin it, feel smug, adds to a frankly alarming amount of ****e which won't easily decay but festers in non-biodegradable bags stinking up bins, refuse lorries and landfill sites. You can argue that these things stink anyway so nothing lost but putting a degradable natural substance that you want rid of into a container which prevents the natural decay of said substance does seem a bit absurd. If I'm out in the countryside and my dog ****s I'll often either; a) leave it, if I'm satisfied that the chances of someone stepping in it over the next few days are remote. b) cover it with organic material such as leaves, ensuring that there is sufficient coverage to prevent unwanted squirting if squelched. c) pick it up using a tissue and deposit it behind a tree or in a hedge, unbagged of course.
My village put out free bags at the end of many of the walkways, so lazy bastards stop leaving their dog's ****e everywhere, they're fully biodegradable.
It was a great day success according to the police. Only one arrest. Look forward to a report on a City game which says 8 to 10 men were having a proper fight and the police had a word with them and no arrests were made. The odds on that will be on a par with winning the lottery.
Will they be getting 3 year banning orders? Will Corcoran be spending months poring over CCTV of the incidents on the day?
Nah, they'll just clamp down on what drinks people going to the next meeting can take in with them, even though they'll be different people, and they were liable to have been better behaved anyway.
