No blocked or closed footpaths round here (although out of goodwill i'm staying away from public footpaths through farms).

But one thing i noticed is the insane amount of fly-tipping... there's not much countryside round here, but as soon as there's a mile of rural road, someone comes along and dumps a load of household waste all over it.

Not to mention the jewel in the crown this morning... a pair of shitty boxer shorts discarded on the path in the adjacent council estate.

Coupled with people shouting and insulting you out of their car windows, it's not an entirely idyllic road running experience round here.
