    Ewwwwww, who does that? We always pick up in a bag, then toss the bag in the trash can. IMHO what's even grosser is people who don't pick up at all, can't understand that, who wants to step in dog doo? Supposedly there are fines, but, as the park ranger said, you have to catch them doing it, which of course doesn't happen often.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Not always through choice. If you were a single parent on benefit and could only afford to buy one cycle helmet who are going to buy it for, yourself or your child, who, through lack of cycling experience, is more likely to fall off their bike?

    One of the dog poo bins on our local park had to be moved as the bags were being taken out of the bin and the contents spread over swing seats and other nearby children's play equipment. Now that takes some kind of strange mentality...

    Honest, reliable seller looking for honest, reliable buyers.

    Now that is really disgusting as well as depraved. Makes you wonder about the sanity of some folks...

    It IS strange isn't it. If they knew that slugs, very helpfully, ate it and they were depriving the slugs of a meal they might consider not packaging it up and just moving it to a grassy verge (that wasn't a walkway). Personally, I always bag it and bring it home to bin it (there aren't any poo bins round here - no-one to empty them, I suppose)

    Helmets are cheap enough these days that you could buy two for about twenty quid.Not a huge amount in the great scheme of things.
    I don't think finances are considered at all,certainly not by the cyclists I've spoken to.It was more a case of "It won't happen to me".


    ...
    who, through lack of cycling experience, is more likely to fall off their bike?
    .....
    Sadly it's not just a case of falling.I've met numerous people who have suffered a brain injury through being knocked off their bikes.
