Soiled nappies dumped under car in front of my house. The car has not moved since the weekend and the nappies are there all weekend under the car. The nappies are open and dirt contents are on the road. Do not know if the car owner knows anything about the nappies or has just driven over a bag that contained them. Not pleasant to look at, likely to be a health hazard.

Meanwhile I have seen people stepping onto the exposed nappies not realising what they were stepping on. Some rain, cars and buses have helped in washing, squashing and scattering the contents. The weekly sweep sometimes happens on Friday so shall see if these are cleared. Guess that the person who dumped the nappies won't have learnt from this?
