Litter-picking...








...was organised by our two local Borough Councillors in our road and neighbouring roads today. Volunteers turned out - I joined in with a will. We were equipped with proper gloves and pick-up sticks with useful big tweezers.  Here we all are, standing by the local railway station, with just some of the vast bags of rubbish that we collected.

At 11 am we stopped, stood still,  and observed the Two Minutes Silence.I hope all my readers in Britain did too.

The Mass in St Josephs in Guildford starts at 11:00 so we had a very impressive 2 minutes silence starting with a wreath of poppies being laid before the altar - by a serving soldier. We didn't have a rubbish collection but I do try and pick up rubbish in Guildford. All auntie Joanna's training has paid off!
