if that manager really does have people who clean that area, he needs to fire them because it is always filthy

[@talex1625]

They should also put something along the top of that wall to deter people from sitting there drinking.

[@chilli_pips]

Yup! The cleaning crew are also paid for by a pot of money that all the residents and businesses have to pay into, because when given the choice of having to close that gate all the time or have to pay money to get the fly-tipping cleaned, they chose to pay so now they all pay.

[@chilli_pips]

@@talex1625 I'd be lying if I didn't once have anti climb paint in my Ebay shopping basket... lol

[@saledwards8927]

Oh man! My OCD is going haywire!! I'd have a rake, shovel and a big trashcan and shovel all that into the trash bin.

[@saledwards8927]

Plus I'd be getting rid of any dead twigs too, and. Clean the plants up a little.

Good job as always great litter picker you have there I went litter picking with my grandson he loved it . I had to keep reminding him him not to pick up with his hands he’s only four but he was so good he said nan I’m good at picking up garbage and I said you sure are ❤

It is so lovely that you are teaching him that littering is not very nice.

[@Mr.Howell]

Good morning 5am, Delaware USA Saturday. I went litter picking this week inspired by you and two pickers in Vietnam. I felt good! I needed to give back

[@chilli_pips]

It does cleanse the soul!

23:23 that laugh is just borderline mental 😅 I felt a “Why am I doing this?” and an “Are you taking a piss?” vibe at the same time 🥴 I’m only at the 25 minute mark, but this is one of the best videos yet Chilli! 😄

The people who littered, cursed to "live" as snails 🐌

[@libbyecheverria730]

It's the cutest thing ever that you found a place to donate to snails. ❤ And I'm glad you love to make the videos, because we love to watch them.

[@bryanparsons9277]

I too have taken a break from litter picking, but now having seen your newest video compilation, I'm reminded to go out and take on a couple spots. Thanks cowboy; as always, you inspire.

[@mufasah888]

Maybe that guy "thinks" the company that has people who do it, because YOU do it, and he just assumed his company had hired someone. 🤔🤷‍♀️🤣 So dear Chili, you are the people who do it! 😉😁

[@chilli_pips]

I said that to him!! hahaa I was like "well, I've been doing it for the past 5 months!" He then tried saying about needles too and I just turned around and showed him my sharps box like "yup, got it covered"

[@mufasah888]

Your patience is amazing mate, going back to places you’ve cleaned already for yet another deep clean. As always, love your work!! 🌶️🌶️🌶️ #TeamChilli

[@chilli_pips]

They're just giving me an easy video each time at this point haha Probably no more though tbh

You know its older trash when you don't find vapes. Well done!

What you didn't realise is that YOU are the 'people who come and do it.' 😂 He didn't know he was interacting with the man, the myth, the legend that is Chilli!

Entertaining😂....They've definitely got people who don't do it😂!! love the wild flower seeds....hope they have success. Thanks for the nice long video and also for making the cat's day with some treats.😺

[@Diana-ij4wd]

Great to see you back I don’t know how you keep going back to the same place . It’s so disheartening the way people live . Stay safe and healthy x💕

[@chilli_pips]

I never think of the people that have done the littering; I sometimes forget that's how it gets there lmao

[@lindahutchinson6387]

I’m a fan and feel I’m getting to know the English countryside! You are terrific at adding interest to your content….. the music is especially delightful! You need to be knighted for saving your community from drowning in their garbage!!! We have the same challenge here in the States! I am 84 and worked hard all my life! I have the same good feeling as you do when I have turned a mess into order. God Bless you and your wonderful accomplishments in turning your community into a better place to live❤️

[@gleff3345]

43:45 That's the wagon you need!

[@mufasah888]

Maybe you can dig up some nice pokey brambles to plant there. They will eventually grow enough to cascade over that wall. Perfect deterrent for sitting on the wall. 😊

[@chemicalstairs]

9:58 waiting for the cat screech and there it is!

[@user-ne8te6jz7d]

outstanding jobs there chilli David Attenborough eat ur heart out.. lol

[@alifeofkeith1208]

Hi chilli i always look forward to your videos

[@Upppp9]

I appreciate your concern for the snails. I've also relocated a few snails in my time. It feels a lot better than unnecessary destruction. (Accidentally hurting them doesn't impact karma, I'm pretty sure.) I did another litter pick today after being inspired again by your channel. The only interesting find was a tennis ball, which I kept and bounced along the way. I definitely need to remember to carry spare bags, because the one I had was about to burst by the end, the mess of which would have quickly blown across a busy road (so i know that feel ~ 43:50).

[@chilli_pips]

Yea, nothing like the awkwardness of holding up traffic by dropping something not-so-smartly-secured!

[@sophieking7508]

It must be soul destroying seeing people littering over and over in the places you clean. Really enjoyed these jobs. Thank you!

[@amandak.4246]

ah how fun to see my name at the end! thanks for everything you do. i was pretty down this past december, and your daily videos really cheered me up, because i knew each day i could look forward to your videos. you're a kind man! very sweet of you to give treats for that cat you saw by the canal.

[@chilli_pips]

Thankyou!! Glad you like the whole Name thing at the end! I wanted to include everyone supporting so you're part of the videos forever!! :D

[@helenapersson9499]

Great job again!😊💪🏻 or fantastic is more like it! Some great laughs as well

[@MyBeautifulLife]

You are doing amazing job, so many bags again and TV wow

[@MadelineRose-ep7fj]

Be safe out there.😊

[@euniceloy7120]

The comment "We have people who do that." Reminds me of a song years ago that I heard. It goes something like this "I'm looking around and God, why isn't somebody taking care of this or that (put in your concern, homelessness, trash pick up.)?" Then one day God told me "But there is someone to do that, there's you!" I tried to find the song, but I couldn't.

[@Mr.Howell]

In a strange way, bottle tossers almost did you a favor by tossing in a shaded area, so you don't have to pick (roast) in a hot sunny area. *Also I think it would be perfectly okay if you had pocket branch cutters to cut a dozen branches so you could squeeze through. *Six bags well done and TV too! *You could write a book! Your community should honor you! ⏰👣🦠🌐🪓

[@chilli_pips]

I've carried secateurs sometimes. I'll always try to leave as many branches though so not to invite people into places

[@Mr.Howell]

@@chilli_pips how about a short handle three-prong rake to loosen up the soil when you drop those flower seeds. It would look beautiful there but rock hard soil is not friendly to

[@lindahutchinson6387]

Totally agree! Cut those bramble stocks and dead shrub branches to make it easier on you!!! Seems your community needs not only litter picking but green waste removal volunteers to clear the knee-deep branches and leaves! People WILL toss their trash into waste containers if they are an option !!!!! YOU have proven that with your personal test bin you set up! The Counsel should ask your input for the placement of 100 new bins to see the improvement! OH! Your traveling music is playing … just cheers me up so much…

[@astra-rb6sz]

Dear Chilli, I recon that man who said we have people who do it is the person who uses that laughing gas it’s killing his brain cells off ! Your so amusing love that archeology scene 🤣. Thanks for rescuing those snails , but you know what I fear they will be back if the beer cans return, when I’m out litter picking I always find slugs and snails in the cans or around them.

[@chilli_pips]

Yea, it's really surprising just how many snails there were tbh! And even more suprising how many of them LOVE BEER!!! lol also Ima send you something next week btw! Been ill so haven't really done much this week

[@astra-rb6sz]

@@chilli_pips Oh yes , I know people who use beer in the garden to keep the slugs and snails away from the plants ! I’m sorry you have been unwell hope you are ok now 🌻🌸

[@cakebomb4921]

I wonder if he thinks they hired a cleaning crew, but doesn"t know you've been cleaning it every time. Lol

[@Mr.Howell]

*it totally boggles 5:00 the mind, this massive pile of bottles and cans in one spot! (like millions paid for "modern Art" or to famous singers)🌐[picture John Cleese banging his head on Fawlty Towers, that's me when I see all that you find to pick up! * Planting wildflowers is a wonderful idea, a treat for yourself when you return for more fun.]🪓🦠🦞How did these bottles end up here? Did a homeless person lay there drinking or walk by and toss them, what's the story? It's got me scratching my head. Why are people so heartless? ❌🌐 Down and Out in Paris and London by George Orwell?.

[@maxineclark6674]

TO. Chilli pics Henry rubbish bags do you normally carry each time when you go little picking. From Perth Australia 🇦🇺🐨🤔.

[@MyBeautifulLife]

Great job

[@lesliek3794]

Thanks for the videos. I enjoy the longer videos. It amazes me that people litter like crazy and even after it gets picked up, they go back and do it again. The only good thing about it is videos like yours. Still, it's a bit disheartening. Regardless, I look forward to seeing another video from you.

[@casham6239]

Good morning! I've done some litter picking in my neighborhood. The fact that I'm in an electric wheelchair and have my dog with me doesn't deter me. 🙂 I'm so happy to have found your channel. Your attitude inspires me. "The reward for our work is not what we get, but what we become." _____Paula Coelho I had a few questions. In your travels, what is the most abundant trash. Paper, glass, or cans? In your opinion, if something was found that either had been dropped or tossed, what was the saddest item you had to bin? They make a child seat wagon that attaches to the bicycle. Perhaps you could find a used one? Stay safe!

[@chilli_pips]

The most abundant trash I would say for me personally - plastic wrappers! After that beer cans (again, for me personally) // The saddest thing I have to bin is hard to answer because I don't really feel anything except if it's like an Animal, BUT 2 things come to mind! Finding a kid's lost mitten or bootie in the street, that's kinda sad lol and then when I'm clearing up an abandoned homeless encampment, that's always sad. Awful that people still have to live on the street

[@casham6239]

@chilli_pips Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. Yes, it seems here where I live, plastic wrappers, are the most abundant. (Virginia, USA) How well I remember those days searching for that mitten, sneaker, or boot!! "Where did it fall off!??!" Needing to purchase another set. I don't see an end to the homeless situation soon. I was once myself. All the best.

[@leinbajr]

"We've got people who do it." Are they spiritual beings unable to lift earthly matter? I just picture the "Not Me" ghost from the old Family Circus cartoons (don't know if those atrocious things made it to the UK, I kind of hope not.)

[@gloriaa.garcia3985]

Hi Chilli, you have cleaned the area between the fence and the wall on your second video before. I noticed there's a "No trespassing, private property," and a gate was wondering how do people get in there? Blessings from Texas

[@chilli_pips]

The residents and businesses don't close the gate. There's been meetings with the people there to close the gate, and they actually settled on paying more rent to pay for continuous clean up crews to take the fly-tipping away instead of just shutting a gate.

[@donnahilton8924]

What were those heavy slabs that you removed from the future wildflower bed? You are a snail rescuer, not a murderer! I like how you talk to animals, trees, yourself, .....

[@chilli_pips]

Melted plastic, Most likely an old shelf or display from one of the shops, and the drinkers set it on fire at some point.

I wonder if you could could do an agreement with some gardening KZbinr who could help cutting bushes. That would help you into accessing many placas and leave the areas looking even better!!!

[@chilli_pips]

I know I make KZbin videos, but I don't think I could stand being around another KZbinr lol Anyways, the council cut the hedges, but it's birding season so you can't cut anything for fear of destroying nests
