The recent stormy weather has led to a disturbing amount of abandoned, broken umbrellas on the streets of Brooklyn. Just in the space of an hour last saturday evening we saw 15, yes 15 wrecked and discarded umbrellas which had been…
Dumped in bins….
(there are 3 umbrellas in the above picture, there is one in the bin top left corner, just out of shot)
Abandoned near, on and over fences…
Randomly discarded on the street…
This baby umbrella was left at the bottom of our steps so we rescused him and will be hand rearing into a fully-grown adult
However, after all of our umbrella rescuing we realised something – we’d left our own brand-new umbrella lying on the floor in the pub…ooops
