Alexikokopops Posted 27 July 2010 Posted 27 July 2010 I hope you didn't drop your litter on the Osbourne House Lawns. We were handed bin bags as we entered and dutifully used them
davieG Posted 27 July 2010 Author Posted 27 July 2010 We were handed bin bags as we entered and dutifully used them That's the solution give everyone who leaves their house a bin bag.
cambridgefox Posted 27 July 2010 Posted 27 July 2010 I pick it up when I go walking or dogging at places where the odd bit of rubbish is spoiling otherwise pristine environments. If someone throws litter on the ground in front of me I have been known to be angered enough to pick it up there and then, but obviously not when they're looking as I'm sufficiently middle class to have a distaste for confrontation, particularly with the tattooed masses. I quite understand that it would be desirable to achieve the goal of people taking responsibility for such things themselves through education, it's just that I don't think it's very realistic and for too many people their self interest and laziness will inevitably outweigh any thought of doing the right thing, which is probably going to be at odds to what they consider best for themselves anyway. Enforcement is visible and sends out a stronger message which I think people are more likely to respond to. I'd be all for the punishment involving a couple of Saturday mornings spent litter picking rather than a fine - I think that would focus minds somewhat Did you mean dogging,i hope you did!! When i go i stay in the car! In reply to Davie G,and his tongue in cheek reply about binbags for everyone,you will probably agree(for once)when i say the attitude of these lowlife litterbugs would be.fill the bag with the rubbish,then either leave it or as i see alot,throw the bloody thing out of the car window.With there"not my job,im keeping someone in a job attitude" GGRRRR

Bellend Sebastian Posted 27 July 2010 Posted 27 July 2010 I experienced the most middle class evening of my life on Saturday night. It involved sitting in the grounds of Osbourne House in East Cowes watching the last night of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra proms, drinking wine, and eating a picnic that involved asparagus wrapped in Parma Ham. That sounds delightful. I hope there were no ruffians spoiling it for anyone, and I imagine it was a better class of litter that was left behind - empty Verve Cliquot bottles, Waitrose sandwich wrappers etc Bellend is the one outside the car watching you With the telephoto lens and sketchbook
