We now seem to be back to the bad old days and worse.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The paths along Mill Straight and in the Country park are a nightmare to walk when the light is bad. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I walk to the Londis shop every morning and during the darker mornings recently, I found it easier (and cleaner) to walk in the road.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I don't blame the dogs, just the few irresponsible owners. Most of the dog walkers I meet are all very friendly and do pick up after their dogs: so why can't they all do it?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;There are commercial poop-scoops available very cheaply but just a simply plastic bag (we all have a surplus of carrier bags these days) is all it requires. No need to get your hands dirty and there always bins nearby if you're too lazy to take it home.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;C'MON SOUTHWATER DOG OWNERS - CLEAN IT UP. It could be you or your child is blinded by the toxicaris worms.&lt;/SPAN&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;</description><pubDate>Mon, 13 Feb 2006 12:10:46 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Andymc</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
