I would like to apologise to the residents of Colwall for putting a small bag of dog faeces in a rubbish bin on Saturday morning.

I was, as usual, shopping locally and was embarrassed by my dog.

Unfortunately, due to surgery caused by aggressive cancer, I am unable to juggle a dog and bags, plus the unfortunate bag and had to dispose of it before I could move on.

I am disappointed no one came to my aid seeing me in a tangle with lead, dog and bags.

M Rozier, Aldert Road, Colwall.
