Not really OT ...................
............ LITTER
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/21/20101216...m-6323e80.html Why should the councils pay? Would it not be better to train the public to use litter bins or take their rubbish home with them? A Take-Away, a Can of Beer/Coke, a packets of cancer sticks, a packet of chewing gum etc etc etc are 'precious' items and warrant being carried either in the pocket, bag or hand whilst full/serviceable, possibly for quite some distance. How come it HAS to be dropped as soon as it is empty? I was walking into a pedestrian precinct one day and a lady sitting on a seat ahead of me dropped something, "Excuse me, you have dropped something" I told her when I got level . (I had seen what it was). 'Oh it's rubbish' (It was a chocolate bar wrapper), "Well don't you think it would be better in the rubbish bin at the end of the seat you are sitting on?" She picked it up and put it in the bin. Youth of today? No I am sorry to say someone my age. Mike -- ....................................
