The only reason I remove it (by shovel into the cut) is if it is where people are likely to tread in it.
This is something I could never understand. Why what would appear to be a consciences owner who clears up after there dog and then throws the bag of poo across the cut to hang in the bushes for months. At first I thought this was a canal related phenomena but have since come across it in other parts of the countryside. -- Brian Ancient Order of Sewer Ants Visit this site and help save our waterways http://www.savethewaterways.org.uk/
