A new breed of tree!!!!!
 
I keep seeing a new kind of tree or bush ...usually next to the canal but i have spotted them in other places too.... they have really strange things growing on them.... pink plastic bags.... with dog poo in them... i was shocked and bewildered to think that some people take the time to pick the poo up and then chuck the tied up bag into the trees or bushes whats the point.... :confused:

Before I persuaded the council to install a dog bin near my home, there was the same problem with discarded bags.
I live in an upstairs flat overlooking woodland at the back.
I counted 20 bags visible within 10 yards.
I suppose people at ground level think that the bag has disappeared in the long grass - not so - looking down on them spoils what otherwise would be a lovely view.

Is that you praising the Council for installing a bin?

After the owners could have taken the dog dirt home with them and put it in their own bins.

Some dog owners were considerate enough not to throw it in the woods
They put it in MY bin :eek:

Since my bin is parked under my neighbours kitchen window, I don't think he would agree.
I go to the trouble to put cat poo down the loo, which is the best way to dispose of any poo.
I think dog owners should have doggy litter trays and do the same.
Even when they have lifted the poo into a bag, there are still traces left behind on the ground.

Oh no, Jools, you have mistaken this tree for the popular Polopeuscus (Latin), commonly known as the Tree Plop tree indigenous to the Northern Hemisphere, though more widely found in the U.K. north and south of Birmingham. It is part of a genus of 400 varieties.

Mainly found growing beside river walks and paths of forest and woodland areas, their blossom, coming in varying colours, can be viewed all year around and the pungent smell is admired by many a manager at local sewerage plants. The blossom comes in varying shapes and sizes and their covering can take decades to decompose.

It is recommended not to collect any of the said blossom as is known to be toxic to humans and other wild life. Removal is best left to your local Health and Safety officers.

This tree has now been adopted as respect to Apaplop … the goddess of Apathy.

I hope these plastic bags are biodregradeable.

Don't harvest the fruit from these bushes.

They make a foul jam.
