Is anyone else absolutely fed up with seeing their trails strewn with all manner of trash, particularly dog shit bags and empty coffee cups?
Ever since all this coronavirus hysteria started and people started getting paid to stay at home and do nothing, theres been a huge influx of what seems like people who've never been outdoors in their lives, turning up at my local trails a mixture of newly purchased, ill trained and out of control puppies - off lead of course, takeaway coffee's which get dumped on the trail and brand new cheap shiny ebikes which they have no idea how to ride.
I was out tonight for a brief walk and in 5km covered, counted no less than 50 coffee cups from various outlets, the nearest of which is a good 8km drive away. On top of that, there were literally countless dog poo bags all over the place, hanging in trees, in hedges, on the path. Some idiot came around on an electric unicycle doing about 25mph on a blind corner. I'm not quite sure what to say about that, words fail me. The highlight of the walk was a fully soiled disposable nappy, which was positioned next to a bench at a "scenic" viewing area. Given the surrounding dog poo bags, perhaps it did contribute to the ambience of the area somewhat.
Have human beings always been this stupid and irresponsible, or does coronavirus have symptoms akin to a frontal lobe lobotomy which have simply gone unreported?
If I ever see anyone actually throw a fully soiled nappy on the floor like that, I'm going to make them wear it like a face hugger from Alien.
Rant over but I cannot imagine I'm the only one who's extremely annoyed by the behaviour of these people and I don't think its a minority of them either! Utter human trash.
