I Am More Than Angry

[debris4spike]

Just got back from a walk and shopping, and I am really angry.

Just about 5 minutes walk from my house is a lovely park ... I have posted photos of it in the past. Well over the weekend apparently there was an illegal party .... And considering how much rubbish they left it must have been big. There was stuff scattered and about 50 bin-bags. There was also a large set, and bizarrely a door.

They also cut down some trees and just left them.

Yes I am irate.

It isn't often that I get angry about something, but I think the thing that really upset me, is that it is such beautiful space ... and used by so, so many people. There are always runners, walkers, kids, dogs ... there's a football pitch etc.

So I think rather than enjoy my walk in green space in lovely weather, it is just more than frustrated me.

Right, rant over!!!

And, to think the morning had started OK ... I had eventually managed to get my work computer sorted out, ready for this afternoon's work.

So I must get on ... I want to get caught up with my replies to you all. And, before I did that -




Bees are really important for the pollination of plants and they make delicious honey. Do you like honey?
No - only use it occasionally in cookery, as well.



Right let's get this posted x

That's so frustrating about the green space. I hope they replace the cut down trees.

I walked that way today and was impressed that the area has been cleaned up completely ... so Kudos to Exeter City Council.

Didn't walk where the missing trees were - so don't know about that, yet

It's very upsetting that some people have little regard for the importance of public spaces. I've seen such behavior as you describe in parks in NYC too.

It is so, so frustrating how this seems to occur more & more.

I would be just as irate - how absolutely selfish and thoughtless.

I still can't believe it happened

I would be angry too. Have the police been called?

[debris4spike]

I still can't believe it - I was speaking to my brother yesterday and we realised that they were only there a couple of days, so it was good that we presumed the Police had managed to clear it quickly

An illegal party and they left all that crap and trash. Yes it would definitely make me angry too.

I was pleased that Exeter city council cleaned it up quickly ... but, again, annoyed as that comes out of our bills. There is so much a council has to pay for
