Dog poo, and rubbish on the streets

[Carrie-On-Regardless]

Hi

Has anyone noticed the increased amount of dog poo as well as rubbish lying on the streets. Walking from the prom, which is a mess, up Regent Street, along Windsor Place when it is dark is like dancing with danger as there are so many spots where if you take a wrong step then your shoes get covered. I am sure that there are other streets just as bad, but these are the streets I walk regularly-and no I do not have a dog.
What can be done about this? I have not noticed any street cleaners in the area to pick up the rubbish from the school kids, and who will pick up the trodden on dog poo?

This has actually been promoted by the organisers of "Big Things on the Beach" to encourage the public to get involved in public art. What you are doing is not so much dancing with danger, but rather, it is a paradigm of self expression and discovery through body movement. You are, unwittingly demonstrating your artistic side.
