Shady, Had Gone Up The Pipe
After clearing the waste from the front of the Community Centre and the planting of 
flowers by big John (it will of course be his fault if they don’t bloom!) we were woken by the sound that resembled a jammed hoover. The sight that greeted us was a road sweeper operative trying to remove an object from the suction hose on his vehicle. After dashing to help, we recognised the blue hat in the gutter. Yes, poor Shady, whilst litter picking had gone up the pipe. Upon his release, he was inconsolable. The ignominy of a litter picker being picked up by a road sweeper, left him on his knees. Even when reunited with his hat, he refused to move. The Community Council are going to give him a hi-vis jacket. Our next work party will be on 12th May.
