Where's the Muck there's Wave

Just had a read through the office's copy of Creative Review and spotted that Wave have been commissioned to whip up some new posters aimed at trying to deter the amount of dog poo being deposited on the streets. This reminds me of an incident. When I was walking back home a woman had come out of her house and was complaining energetically to anyone who would listen about a bit of dog crap outside her house. To highlight this, she then for some bizarre reason covered the offending canine by-product in bread crumbs. As the area is populated with seagulls permanently on guard on the roof tops, they were soon casting a beady eye on this breadcrumbed coated delicacy, and noisily began circling in on their quarry. At that minute, a dog walker was miffed when their dog made a beeline for this apparently appetising looking bit of street food. Thankfully a decent neighbour intervened and stopped the ongoing chaos by calmly removing said offending item wrapping it in paper and depositing it in the local dog poo bin. Let that be a lesson to you if you ever allow your dog to foul on the streets o' Hastings town - caution: women armed with breadcrumbs are lurking in the doorways.
