In Praise of Council Workers

Just had to post this as a 'restores your faith' kind of post.

Running at the seaside with my training partner this morning -
(Approaching St George's Church in Cullercoats for those that know the area)

- up ahead, two council men, climbing out of their refuse van to empty a bin
(on a Sunday?)

- it's obvious that there is nowhere for us to go. Options seem to be - step into the road - squeeze round behind men and risk tripping over a bench - stop and wait for them to finish

- haven't decided which course of action to take when council man 1 looks up and sees us approaching, steps back to give us room and gives council man 2 the word to do likewise

- cheery 'thank yous' given, and 'nee bother' replies

Public thanks, to the considerate bin emptiers of North Tyneside
