Is this area full of spitters? Every time I go for a walk I come across quite a few. What prompted me to post this was a walk up from Homebase on Saturday. First a chewing gum nearly landed on my shoe. It was spat out of the window of a car waiting to escape from the Arena retail park. I made it clear to the spitter that that was disgusting. Then a young girl turned around as she was entering a shop on Green Lanes, and spat out through the door. A bit further up a man was gathering phlegm from deep, deep within before he deposited what he managed to find right on the pavement in one big, horrid, sticky glob.
I have actually stopped people in the past, telling them that their behaviour is disgusting, and have actually received a few apologies!
Is spitting now socially acceptable? Are people so used to it they don't stop and think about how unhygienic and horrid it is? And how can we make them think about what they're doing? Posters? On the spot fines? Who would fine them?
