“Next time Rodders, next time.”

Posted on December 1, 2015 by theprofessionallitterpicker

I thought this photograph deserved a blog post of its own! I went to a beach that gets very little traffic.  There’s a hut there that ‘Driftwood Dave’ has lived in on and off since 1982!  He recently got permission … Continue reading →

Posted on October 16, 2014 by theprofessionallitterpicker

Found a rather smart watercolour of Tiger Woods this morning in a second hand shop. Bought it for £1. Put it on ebay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Watercolour-of-Tiger-Woods-1997-/201195954727? Could it help fund my beach cleaning scheme? Will keep you informed.

Slacking…but still active.

Posted on June 2, 2014 by theprofessionallitterpicker

Write a book he says.  It’ll pay for my litter picking business he says. Yeah, right!  So to kick start my literary career I thought I’d just start telling some stories, (true stories) on ‘you tube’…and here’s the first one. … Continue reading →
