Yet more evidence for those people who wish to ban any form of camping on the moor

Selfish irresponsible toe-rags spoiling it for the rest of us who leave no trace :mad:

Year after year there are stories about this sort of thing, not to mention the illegal raves

You could have inspected the area that @Matt, @divebuddy & I used over the weekend & not known that we had even been there

It does my noggin in so it does !
 
Same as this shite

I was going to express my opinion on how this can be combated and punished…….……Better not!

The trouble is, it wont be long until the pond life outnumber the decent in this country.
 
Back in the late 80's I worked on the church in the village of Llanymynech. Nice little village , Welsh side and an English side as the border runs through it and at one end a bridge over the river. I was told to look out for one local resident , an elderly woman called miss Pew. That might not be the correct spelling , I'm just writing it as one would do with a church pew. Anyway this miss Pew would pick up any litter she could see although curiously only from the English side. This would all be carried to the bridge and lobbed into the river. One day the foreman placed a brick on the side of the path and we waited. Surely enough the brick ended up in the river. To be fair I think she had what would now be called mental health issues ( i can also recall her coming into the church to ask the vicar about cremated bodies "sitting up" ) and probably couldn't see what she was doing as being anything wrong.
 
Pugh would be the correct spelling. We used to live near to a lady with the same issues. She lived in flat nearby and would take the rubbish bags that other residents of the flats put in the bin store and dump them in the gardens of the surrounding houses. She was definitely mentally ill, it only stopped when she was locked up (well probably just arrested and assessed by social services as not coping) for persistent shoplifting.

In Darwin town they have some bloke the newspapers have dubbed 'the rubbish warrior'. This old gent is homeless and spends his days creating elaborate artworks out of rubbish collected around the place. Trouble is, he digs out his garbage from skips and waste bins then expresses his art on roadsides around the place which were previously free from rubbish. So hes just spreading the garbage around the place -with the council trying to clear up after him.

He also has mental issues. I once saw him pacing up and down in the centre reservation of the road, gesticulating wildly and having a loud argument with somebody on his cell phone.

His 'cell phone' was a discarded cigarette packet
