On returning home from a shop run for mother, stopped off with buckets in the car to pick up #roadsidelitter on the road into the village. Didn’t expect to run out of space!! #StopThePlasticTide… instagram.com/p/B-hNl-Bndgt/…

No beach today, somewhere a lot closer to home. A whole 10 seconds from the front door, it’s quite windy here and not uncommon for wheelie bins to get blown over and scatter their contents. So wellies on and have… instagram.com/p/B-CMDyBnGua/…

Back on the beach this morning after a short break due to a sprained ankle, came across a large barrier belonging to aberdeen_cc but it was too heavy (filled with sand / water) to move - maybe they can send someone… instagram.com/p/B9oN-NnHViB/…

Well, plenty to take off the beach today in a fantastic morning sun, unfortunately I broke yet another picker ☹️ they’re not the best quality ones I’ve been using but better than nothing 🤷‍♂️… instagram.com/p/B9BZ28pHMkV/…

Another full bucket, this time filled with a wide variety of plastic, polystyrene, metal and vinyl flooring! #StopThePlasticTide #GreatBritishBeachClean #2MinuteBeachClean #SingleUse #BeachClean #GenerationSea… instagram.com/p/B8-7GkrHp4w/…

Back on #AberdeenBeach this morning and mornings getting a lot lighter, no LED lights or head torches required now. Large metal mesh was too big for the bucket but was removed up to the walkway where aberdeen_cc… instagram.com/p/B88SzocHOJY/…

On this mornings #beachwander the sun peaked over the horizon as we headed back. Looking forward to brighter mornings and warmer weather #StopThePlasticTide #GreatBritishBeachClean #2MinuteBeachClean #SingleUse… instagram.com/p/B8vbXWFnLsr/…

Still not got the big car back but managed to squeeze a bucket into the smallest boot in history. Lots of polystyrene at the north end today along with an inflated balloon and a metal pole. An overflowing bucket… instagram.com/p/B8dav-unonY/…

A little bit last night between AN26 & AN30 then again this morning AN39 towards Donmouth. Not a great deal to pick up which is great news for the beach, the big tyre is back just north of AN40 but to much of a… instagram.com/p/B75V1bpnT0s/…

Back on the beach today between AN39 & AN31 - not that much for a change, but did come across a buried shopping trolley that I wasn’t even attempting to remove #StopThePlasticTide #GreatBritishBeachClean… instagram.com/p/B72zsoenyXE/…

Low tide today, managed to get along the north end to Don mouth, massive amounts of sand erosion here, but also an abundance of ceramic washed up amongst other things. #StopThePlasticTide #GreatBritishBeachClean… instagram.com/p/B7nqA9UlbuB/…

Walked between AN38 & AN30 today. Not the usual stretch. #StopThePlasticTide #GreatBritishBeachClean #2MinuteBeachClean #SingleUse #BeachClean #GenerationSea #PlasticFreeCoastlines #PlasticFreeCommunities… instagram.com/p/B7kxa0llK8x/…

Back on the beach again. We were there yesterday, but just for a walk along the prom. Too much water at mid tide today to get to Donmouth but came across half buried tyre near the rocks. Lots of little thinks picked… instagram.com/p/B7iMEW4F8kj/…

Still a massive tyre sitting around AN40 hope aberdeen_cc are able to assist in its removal, far too big for me. Today’s bucket had numerous candles and tennis balls that had washed up along with the usual plastic,… instagram.com/p/B7X44zcF0FA/…

Storm Who? Wasn’t too bad this morning, although there’s a huge amount of sand missing off the beach and exposed a lot of rocks and even a section of wall, as much as that didn’t belong, I wasn’t moving it!! There… instagram.com/p/B7Sr_g_lZ5d/…

Back at the beach again after a weekend off, first thing I come across is a plastic urn from aberdeen_cc crematorium - thankfully it was empty! Then further along, another float. I wasn’t able to remove this but… instagram.com/p/B7QHFY4lDt2/…

Flying solo today. Was minus 5 Celsius when I left the house, todays bucket was filed with the usual polystyrene, but there was quite a few flowers that people had left on nearby benches as Christmas memorials. Oh.… instagram.com/p/B7IXtFzFhDM/…

Both of us out this morning. Back at the Donmouth end although didn’t make it all the way along as was able to get in amongst the rocks and retrieve enough to fill two buckets! #StopThePlasticTide… instagram.com/p/B7FzKk8lImu/…

Moved a little further along this morning and there seemed to be a considerable amount of polystyrene about. Saw on Facebook yesterday about a study being done at the universityofwesternaustralia about the larvae… instagram.com/p/B7DQ2WUFsbz/…

Didn’t venture into the sand yesterday morning but did today, not a lot on our usual stretch, but it was extremely windy. A yellow weather warning ⚠️ is in place and the sands have shifted somewhat.… instagram.com/p/B7AsV3mlQfA/…
