Put your leftover veggies in a  bin. Add worms. Leave it all for a bit. Spread results on plants and stuff (soil actually). As a bonus curried worms are tasty and nutritious (and non-fattening)

Our council (same one as Wenchy) supplies them as well.

However they have stopped their "free" garden waste collection and now want you to cough up £35 for their plastic sacks which they will empty once a fortnight. They will only empty their sacks, so now lots of people will be driving to the dumps - very green!

So far there have not been many takers with many angry letters in the local papers.

In sunny Cyprus the binmen come twice a week and take EVERYTHING!!!  Even stuff not in the bin.... and you can leave the bin out the day before or have the lid ajar! cloud9:

It's such a joy after the ridiculous UK system.  Not that I wish to rub it in or anyfink. 8)

Just wait until the European Regs get to work on your sunny island.  eveilgrin:

Snoopy was right........ sad24:   one area are trying to bring in a similar system to wot Tel described.......... noooo:
