Report written by Anji Andrews (she/her)
Hooray! A completely light (and bright!) group run tonight, the first one of BST 23.
We were low on numbers but high on energy as we set off to the Quayside for a group litter pick. While it was a sunny evening, there was still a chill in the air as we split into two small groups at The Cycle Hub: Elly, Lucy and I taking care of Spillers car park while Aimee and Oliver headed off towards the Millenium Bridge to clear the paths of rubbish on their way.
I set a mini challenge tonight to attempt to find items, sights or thoughts during the task that represented the alphabet. Time flew over and it was soon time to meet up- not before rescuing Aimee's bag which had split thanks to a few hefty bottles she had found along the way.
There was a bit of artistic license as we checked in with the A-Z as follows...
A - appletiser
B - Bottle top
C - cable tie
D - dirty bottles
E - empty bottles
F - feathers
G - glass bottles
H - heavy bags I -
J - junk
K - Kit Kat
L - large lambrinin
M - maybe Kit Kat
N - Never buy the bags from farmfoods
O - oregano
P - paper
Q - quality street wrappers
S - Straws
T - thread
U - umbrella
V - vodka
W- wine bottles
X -
Y- yob evidence
Z- zucchini
I will let you decide if we made any of those up.
Three community missions await this week on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. Make the most of your week and come along!
