Have You Noticed The State Of Lay-bys These Days? They Are Disgusting!

They are full of faeces, usually bagged or freelance! Bottles of urine plus those done in an emergency, bags of food, stuff just dumped, other carrier bags of litter and other miscellaneous items!

Who is responsible for the cleaning up of them? How did people become so disgusting to dump their filth?

Have you ever perused a lay-by at your leisure?

I have never perused a lay-by, no. There was a series on C5 (I think) recently about fly-tipping, etc and the state of lay-bys were included in a number of episodes.

It seems to me that the culprits are mainly truckers parked up for the night and, yes, many of these are East European drivers.

I just happened to be driving down that road and saw a lady like yourself thumbing a lift. Being a gentleman I stopped and she got into the car. Didn't take long getting into a conversatrion. I asked her what she did for a living, She said she didn't have to work because she was a witch,

Na I said your joking, if your a witch prove it, so she put her hand on my upper leg and I turned into a lay-by

Re: Have You Noticed The State Of Lay-bys These Days? They Are Disgusting!

I frequently used lay byes when I used to be on the road, and, I admit, I had a special bottle for emergencies although I emptied it and never left it there, I was lucky as I could use a toilet when I got to my next call, the thing is, there are no rest areas or truck stops or even public toilets for people on the road I’m talking about truckers mainly there’s no where to go when they need the toilet, of course it doesn’t excuse them leaving human excrement anywhere, but I’ve seen the state of some lay-bys so I know what art means...

I came across "dogging" sites while countryside walking so I logged and mapped them in order that "sensitive souls" might avoid them while out on a ramble ....

Do you have a copy of this map I could study? So that I can avoid them of course.
