I LEFT for my walk around The Knap at 10am on Monday last week, expecting that after all the recent coverage in the press, it would be free of dog mess.

Silly me!

Both pavements on the right hand side of Romilly Park Road and along Lakeside on my return, bore witness to the uncaring attitude of most of the dog owners who use this route to Romilly Park and the Birchgrove Woods.

And, as ever to be expected, the promenade was heavily contaminated along its whole length.
