Count Your Blessings #103 – Street Cleaners

The Longsands OwlI live in a country where things get cleaned up.

This was reinforced to me over the last few days.

In the middle of a roundabout near where I live there is a new sculpture of an owl (pictured). It’s an owl because that’s the symbol for the local school (where Emily goes).

When the sculpture went up Sue and I wondered how long it would be before the sculpture was defaced.

It was only a few weeks.

Over the weekend someone decided that the sculpture would look better with a load of white pain all over it.

Yesterday I was out walking and noticed that a man was stood in the middle of the roundabout with a jet-wash cleaning the paint off.

It’s nice to see your taxes at work.

(Yes I did stand in the middle of a busy roundabout to get this picture)
