Geoff, One sack is dumpton gap beach before tide came in, then over to palm bay beach. 2nd sack is the corner of the lido car park, before and after photos. Margate Town Council should be ashamed of themselves, been there for months. An epic walk from Nethercourt, up London Road, down Westcliff Road and then to the amazing lunch at Radford House in Effingham Street hosted by Maxine Morgan for Ramsgate Litter Pickers. A slower walk back (to walk off the chips and cake!) towards Nethercourt up Ellington Road and through Ashburnham and Southwood Gardens. 6000 odd steps and 4 miles later we picked 7 bag. Emma A further 9 bags collected from ditches in alleyway alongside Royal Harbour Academy. 📌Duvet 📌Kids play equipment 📌Carpet 📌Empty paint pots 📌Cones 📌Bike tyre 📌Child's car seat 📌Unused needles 📌Oh and the amazing Malcolm from TDC who took 3 bags and is collecting the rest later from Newlands Road and The Hive 👍😁 Mick, I just beat the rain and collected 1 bag of general rubbish and 1 bag of recycling from Nethercourt Park 😥 And 3 really lovely youngsters (2 girls and a boy) who turned up for a little picnic, with drinks and sweets, 🍫 put their wrappers & bottles in the bin 👏🥳👏 when they had finished.
