While most have been enjoying the picturesque scenes the current cold weather has brought, ‘mindless idiots’ have taken bins from a park and thrown them onto a frozen lake.

Six bins that are usually in place around Acton Park have been thrown on to the frozen lake since yesterday afternoon.

We are told the bins will not be recovered until a thaw takes place, and then local anglers will likely be wading in to the freezing water to remove them.

Earlier this week we took these pictures of the park looking wonderful:
