An 85-year-old litter picker is outraged after being fined for littering after leaving his walking stick on a roadside - while out on a litter pick.
Furious Alan Davies was "shocked, angry and upset" to be fined by Walsall Council when he forgot his walking stick in Aldridge, West Midlands on September 6.
Alan and his friends had been on their daily litter pick along Longwood Lane and Hayhead Wood.
The grandad then says he drove off - forgetting to pick up his walking stick and a bag with his cushion inside, which he had set by the roadside.
