Wombling

Today, as part of the Severn Estuary Spring Clean Up, we joined a Beach Clean in our home town.   Other half went out happily,  quite a change for a Saturday afternoon when Skye Sports usually wins 🤔

Wombling on the beach.

We weren't the only ones out with litter pickers and sacks.  All ages, grandmothers with younger family members,  couples,  people on their own, it was a good mix.  And as for the litter,  well, that was a mix too.  We found pieces of plastic, tin cans, chocolate wrappers, fishing line, takeaway coffee cups and a broken crabbing net.  The most unusual item, found by the group, included a toilet seat 🤷‍♀️.  I'm mean, really?   A loo seat?

The organiser reminded us that if everyone that visited the beach picked up just one piece of plastic,  it would make a real difference.   My other half is in credit.   Whenever we ramble, or just walk down the town, he will take a carrier bag in his pocket for any litter he may find.

It's been a social day.  We started with lunch with friends, beach cleaned, and then we had a well earned cup of tea with more friends and litter pickers in the Beach Hotel.   9852 steps and I hardly noticed.  It's always good to give something back.

Blood test results are back and remain amazing.  Spring is on its way.  I feel I'm waking up again.  There's so much to be grateful for. ♥️
