A day at Hell’s Mouth (Porth Neigwl) Lleyn Peninsula - Tali quote - ‘I’m having so much fun I want stay here all day’ - result :) even with a bit of learning thrown in there too - choices, responsibility and accountability! I also learnt that I need to put my child’s gloves on earlier as I had to abandon and return for our litter bounty - impressed that bins are provided for beach litter so you don’t have the dilemma of whether to stink your vehicle out or not! Well done Gwynedd Council. As an observation, the litter could have been far worse and from what we saw, it appeared to be mostly fishing industry waste with a noticeable lack in recreational waste!

Have simmered for 2 hrs, now straining - cover if leaving overnight. Don’t bash it, just let gravity to the work. Cover if leaving over night. These are windfall eaters btw but crab apples wd also work well though cooking apples tend to mush quickly and I’ve no free supplies so not tried!

Don’t be too tidy out there, who knows what might want to move in. Unusual so far this year in our Dinorwig garden; a newt, an enormous toad, a jelly like fungus, nut hatch, and the Barn owl is back. Chuffed this fungi likes us!

We are pretty pleased with ourselves! Another mission to Dinas Dinlle and as always exploring comes up with ‘treasure’ - we think a lobster claw. The beach was actually pretty clean of large debris but still managed a bit of a clean up -

Well what an amazing haul at Dinas Dinlle today! Following Wayne's suggestion, we took a stroll along the shore and as well as a bin bag full of mainly recyclable rubbish, there were still alive (and dead) sea creatures galore washed up like nothing we have seen before. Can you identify them? Post your answers in the pics comments and we will let you know who's right!

Learn how long our trash lasts....
The increasing waste volume is a major concern for mankind. So, the best way to deal with this problem is avoiding products that generate waste materials. Unpackage your life, choose reusable, recycle, share it with friends!

Important that everyone contributes to this if we want to put conservation not exploitation at the heart of national parks management

Welsh Government's consultation closes on 30th September - please act swiftly to ensure that our National Parks and AONBs retain the protection they need.

This is a great idea - and definitely achievable for everyone

So not even biodegradable and flushable wipes are actually either of those things ...

This wet wipe (marked flushable & biodegradable) was placed by LOVEmyBEACH in water back in 2012!

We find lots of these on beaches so please don't flush them.

Wet wipes have become a staple for many parents. We use them too sometimes but try flannels for hands and faces and choose biodegradable and never flush.

Wallace the Wet Wipe Monster is out and about again this week. Our pollution team will be with him on Teignmouth beach in south Devon from tomorrow until Thursday. It's part of the TRAIL event - Teignmouth Recycled Art In Landscape - & we'll be there with other orgs inc Environment Agency & South West Water Wallace will be bringing the message to beach visitors. Come see us! You won't miss Wallace - he's a whopper!
