From our Evenley Womble- Sarah

 The hedgerows around Evenley have been trimmed back, allowing access to all sorts of grot. 

We've collected a full bag today, including a wine bottle, lots of cider cans, a runner's water bottle and one very wet and heavy boot. This bag was collected from between the Mixbury sign and Evenley Wood Gardens, probably less than a mile, and a regular picking route for us, so I was surprised we hoiked out so much !

IT'S A MAMMOTH JOB....

 ... but we are taking it on! The lay-by as you enter Brackley from the Bicester side before the Evenley roundabout is by far the worst thing we have seen! So much litter, mounds of it. We barely touched the sides on our first attack. It was really hard core and is the reason why we need our lovely 400+ group members to look after the roads in Brackley so us weekly hard core members can do filthy areas like the layby we started today. We shall be plugging this A LOT over the next few weeks!   A43 layby heading into Brackley from Bicester 6 hard core Wombles and in 2 hours cleared 51 bags 127 tizer Lawnmower, baby rocker, baby seat, 2 tyres, 1 wheel, lots of bags of compost, suitcase, shoes galore, a flat screen TV and dvd player ( feel like I'm on the generation game) a pair of pants (hooray!) and other assorted items of grot. Needs lots of work, it's absolutely vile!   Sad thing is, there are no end of small animal runs and holes along there living amongst a thick carpe...

  Brackley Litter Wombles attacking the A43 laybys! We started on the little laybys along the Brackley bypass today.   We laughingly thought we'd be able to do a couple! We started on the one nearest the BP roundabout... They are appalling!!   Today's haul was 36 bags, 69 tizer. Plus hangers, wire, tyres, a lovely pair of silver dance shoes, bags of earth??!!, roof tiles, a Henry Hoover and more. A real Generation Game of assorted detritus. Plenty more to do in just this one layby.   Thank you to Jackie, Trish, David , Gail and Dawn who took part in this full workout. We need to return!
