About a dozen Aberdeen Cycle Forum members and friends gathered along the banks of the Dee this afternoon to pick up litter. Here’s what we found: a shopping trolley, a set of keys on a lanyard, road signs, socks, underpants, about 50 empty bottles of vodka, lots of plastic wrappers, hundreds of pieces of polystyrene and £20.
Not everyone made it into this next photo as some had already left and some were also dedicated pickers who didn’t rest even for a two-minute photo.

What I have learnt – aside from the fact someone is drinking themselves to death with vodka and throwing the empties in the river – is that there are a lots of lovely, friendly people willing to give up their time picking up rubbish to keep our city looking beautiful and that’s something to be very thankful for. Thank you to everyone who came along.


Well done.all!
