When I was at school in Helensburgh the sewage was discharged into the sea and that picture could be from real life then. When the American warships came into Faslane in the Gare Loch condoms were added to the mix.
We tried to avoid swimming if it was too bad but sometimes you got caught out. Depended on the state of the tide.:ohmy:

Grateful that I grew up in Speyside. We used to swim in Loch Morlich, with full wetsuits because it was too cold. :laugh:

But it was great fun.

I've seen dog poo hanging from trees in plastic bags but wrapping them in condoms is taking it to the extreme ! :whistle:

When at school we were taken to the outdoor seawater pool for swimming. Once we took a thermometer from the school lab and checked temperatures because it was always freezing cold. No wet suits in those days and we all had what we called a chittery piece which was anything to eat after swimming to help stop the shivering.
Anyway we discovered that the sea beside the pool was less cold than the supposedly heated swimming pool. Perhaps the warmer outflow from the sewer pipes warmed the sea up a bit.:ohmy:

I know we are not sposed to talk about Polly ticks. I am shocked, or flabbergaster that a MP could tell me how to save money. He says to give up smoking and stop having take aways.

Excellent idea - not. This will have the radical effect of saving me £7 a month.

I do not smoke and never have takeaways so it would not do me much good.:sad:
