14 June 2009. Rubbish dumped at the corner of Clarence Road and Black Boy Lane.
Almost at the entrance to Chestnuts Park.

Zena and I spotted the green and black bags the previous evening (Saturday 14 June). The beds were added today. Dumping encourages and models yet more dumping.
A massive 60 shot upload to keep you all occupied for the next week or so whilst I nip out and take a few more shots.
Please pace yourself, I don't want any complains of Repetative Shot Syndrome...
I'll be adding individual titles and details of what you are looking at (assuming you are bothering to look) as and when I get time. Although I'm not always sure what I'm looking at as, despite several visits to Skye over the years, this is the first time I've actually managed to see the view!

This was originally a Kmart, which was built and opened in 1974. It became The Dump on June 28th, 1996.
I had to lower the shutter speed to block some light out, just enough to be able to view everything around. I zoomed and acknowledged mostly on what the image name is referring too, but it was essential to get the point across.
This pic could be used in an ad that promotes community awareness or the damage cars have on the earth, or in a car pooling ad to reduce the mess.

Another metal car from the Hallmark Collection. Because I remember my own pedal car when I was a child, I enjoy looking at these ornaments on my tree.
The "bed", if that is the right term, of this cake was pastillage, and the rest is cake covered in fondant
Opposite 74 / 75 Holcombe Road near the corner of Kimberley Road. Dumping reported to Haringey/Veolia and promptly cleared.
Why do some people leave rubbish near the base of tree trunks? Do they perhaps "read" the mud, leaves and lower trunk growth as "empty" waste ground.
Martin Ball suggested a second possible alternative possible. That the dumpers show some concern for passers-by, who might otherwise walk into the dumped waste.

Three dumped Geeps lettered for the Idaho, Northern & Pacific on an abandoned stetch of the former San Diego & Imperial Valley (Before that San Diego & Arizona Eastern) near Ocotillo, California. They're boarded up and haven't been used for some time. There's some interesting information on Trainorders about these locos, how they came to be in California and the attempts to restore service on this stretch of line which is moribund west of Plaster City.
