@quixoticgeek @[email protected] I was 31 when I moved to London, and first encountered wombles when watching the London marathon and there were a bunch in costume running and the entire crowd started singing the theme song. This is obv the best way to learn about them as an adult. 🙂 #Underground #Overground #Wombling #Free

Just removed no less than 27 plastic drink bottles from under a hedge.

They contained some type of fizzy liquid, didn't smell like alcohol. Was glad that they didn't contain "driver tizer".

They had been there some time as the liquid was under a lot of pressure since warmer weather arrived. It shot everywhere when the pressure was released.

Well done everyone for your work to keep the place clean & tidy, and ensure wildlife isn't harmed by the waste we produce and irresponsibly discard.

@Jon6705 I think #wombling needs its own hashtag. As an aside, I think Wombled were pretty #solarpunk. Ahead of their time!!
