Asmall Lane, Ormskirk

At long last I’ve managed a couple of collections over the weekend resulting in 3 bulging bags of rubbish from High Moor Lane and Asmall Lane, Halsall. The weather in the North West of the UK has been nothing but rain and more rain through most of November. I don’t mind getting wet but the way it has been I’d need a wet suit. Lovely warm sunshine this afternoon made it a pleasure to be out. From the photos you will see that some of the old favourites came up again. What is it with cups and clothes? The book is What the Bible really teaches, a Jehovah’s Witnesses text. I wonder if rubbish was a problem at the time the Bible was written.



You may recall in an earlier post I mentioned I had accepted Prostate Cancer UK’s 10,000 challenge. My target was to collect rubbish over 10,000 yards of road. With the last 3 collections I have covered 7744yds towards my goal. Just in case you missed earlier posts 10,000 men die of Prostate Cancer each year in the UK. PCUK’s intention is I should seek sponsorship but that is not the aim of this project, it is all about raising awareness.

The collection had far more action than I could have anticipated. I do so hope there were no injuries in the crash which occurred at the junction with Cut Lane. The first I was aware was the arrival of the air ambulance, a fire engine and the police also attended. I was at that spot maybe 30 mins earlier. My best wishes to those involved.
