Paul Smith and Kate Lancaster were going for a Sunday morning dip off Brighton beach when they spotted the Walkers crisp bag on the pebbles just below Royal Crescent. The cheese and onion packet was still intact, despite showing an expiry date of October 1996. Swimmers described the find as “incredible” but worrying. Brighton Swimming Centre Owner says:
“It’s incredible someone in their teenage years could have thrown this in the sea. They’d be in their forties now, what it shows is rubbish doesn’t just go away, there’s a good chance it will outlive you.”
