Brigg Blog recorded the above scene recently while walking through East Park, near the Tintab shelter close to the Monument War Memorial. Perhaps we could label it Pizza Topping!
With the pizza box carefully placed on top of the litter bin we immediately thought this was just another example of a consumer being too lazy to dispose of the aftermath of his/her fast food takeaway.
But our picture suggests that the holes in the side of the bin are not wide enough to accommodate such a box, unless someone is prepared to tear it in two (a messy task and hardly likely to be undertaken).
Many people who buy takeaways in Brigg, especially in the evenings, pass by East Park with food in hand or stop off to finish their snack while sitting in the shelter.
Wherever litter bins are placed, and however many are provided, someone will question the choices made. But perhaps East Park might be considered a priority for one of the larger types available on the market.
A couple of days after this picture was taken we noted that the pizza box had gone - presumably collected the next time the bin was emptied. The bin is being well used to dispose of litter, other than large pizza boxes.
