After warming up with a coffee after parkrun, we headed out along the lake path to see what we could clear.

Inspired by my socks, we introduced Andy and Nene to some exclusive Pompey vocabulary - there was talk of dinlos, squinnying and chufty badges, amongst some other slightly ruder expressions! We then moved on to languages, and Andy impressed us with his Welsh!

We didn't find many of the usual litter pick bingo finds, but Dave did find a delightful bow tie! There was also some death-defying stunts to retrieve litter from the reeds - fortunately nobody added a cold-water swim to their morning.
