Four Goodgymmers, Caprice, Daryl, Keith and Lea were ready to tackle the rubbish the Grockles left behind. We know ‘good weather = lots of rubbish’. And going round the Durley Chine car park, this was very true, well, judging by the profanity coming out of the oldest lady in the group! This was when Caprice and Lea spotted big cartons of orange juice with lots of plastic cups as well as crisps bags and empty coffee cups in between two parked cars… But other areas were actually not as bad as we had expected, yay! Interesting finds this time?!?! Enough tissues to wallpaper a room with, the brown spots on the white tissued walls not to be contemplated too much 🤮🤮🤮🤮. A box of Dunkin Donuts, no thank you, I’ll pass on these, just put them in the bin, a Tesco bag full of naans, a pair of boxers and one gardening glove. Oh, not to forget the totally logical item of a stainless steel metal scourer, yes, you need that on the beach…. And And yay, some members of Joe Public expressed their gratitude tonight, which was nice! Mind you, standing at the top of the steps by Durley Harvester with a perfect view of the Purbecks and good Old Harry… makes you realise how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful spot.
