Make Some Money

i decided to have an apple on the drive to the gym today to give me a quick energy boost. the gym is only about 5 mins away so i could have actually walked it. anyway after finishing the apple i was at the traffic lights so i decided to chuck the apple core out of the window. no problem i thought as its biodegradable and will decompose anyway.

the guy in the car behind me didin’t agree. he quickly jumped out and ran towards my car and picked up my apple, knocked on my window and gave me my apple back with a lecture about nottingham being his city and i should try and keep it tidy. well that told me, i felt a bit stupid and ashamed a bit like a naughty boy who got told off by his teacher. he also noticed i didn’t have my seat belt on and told me to put it on. what a do gooder! i did really admire him caring for his city, if only more people could be like him.

now i’m not really a litter bug, i normally keep rubbish in my car, but if i’m eating apples then i do sometimes throw away the core as it is good for the soil in the country side. ok i was in the city this time, i’ve learnt my lesson now. i wont ever throw apples out of my car again..
