in a mad moment of civic dutyness I recently joined Moseley Litterbusters and their WhatAPP group.
Good folk doing a good job but today (and it’s not unusual) I got just the 64 messages –
many with accompanying photos of litter and/or full bin bags

Brilliant, Sir Howard, but you’re plagiarising our local group posts, though failing to convey the full loss of the will to live!

Hmm, could this possibly be modelled on any known WhatsApp group?
