Tigger

Next door's cat is taking a well earned nap in our garden. (We must get rid of those doors soon! And the christmas tree!!!!!!!)

In the corner of the photo is our new compost bins! We've started composting! Well, not really just yet as I haven't got any soil in the bottom yet. As we can't put it on grass we need to start it off with a small layer of soil so the worms have something to live in for the first few weeks. They also won't come in naturally so when Mark goes to Wales next time he'll bring some manure back with worms. Great!

We also recycle plastic, glass, paper and tins now so almost only put food waste that can't be recycled into the normal bins. Feels quite good actually.

The compost bins were free from the council. Some councils hand them out to people who want them as they want people to recycle more. (Less for the dust-men to take away.) Good initiative! Check if your council also gives them away by typing in "Free compost bins" in Google or whichever your favourite search engine is.
