Well, yes—it truly was a pile of old rubbish. While not as much as in previous litter pick sessions, Catherine and Joannah still collected quite a bit along the Grand Union Canal in Leamington Spa yesterday morning. Among the usual mix of empty cans, bottles, and dog-poo bags, they found an abandoned handbag and a lonely shoe (how does someone even lose a single shoe?!).

Afterwards, a well-earned coffee was enjoyed in the sunshine at Costa near Morrisons in Leamington, where Costa very kindly took care of disposing of the rubbish for us. Big thanks to them!
