Guest guest Posted March 22, 2001 Report Share Posted March 22, 2001 (Whilst I am conforming to chickpea eating, clog wearing stereotype...probably in atonement for my longest ever continuous time using disposable nappies last week...) I have had a bereavement :-( My lovely worms! I went out to say hello to them (not been feeding them for a while as they were a bit overloaded) and they are dead! Still lots of tigers there but, ugh, falling to bits. It has all got too wet and possibly too cold. It has happened once before and I did get going again, but this worm bin is pretty knackered now - the lid is smashed in (it is a converted bin from when Coventry went wheely - I put the tap in myself in a rare fit of half competence) Anyway, I was thinking it would be easier to manage a worm-boosted ordinary composting bin now that my mothering attentions are somewhat divided (and the conventional composting bins that were supposed to be a stop gap over 10 years ago have collapsed too and are mega neglected). I've been surfing today, but the solid twin wooden bins I have seen are pretty expensive. Anyone got any good tips on where to find one cheaper. Self-build is out - DH has his mind on building a replica Center Parcs adventure playground and thinks we have the most expensive compost heaps in existence (fed on the finest organic veg I never got round to using...) Not feeling the world's greatest maternal figure right now - what with the drowned worms, the cats who are refusing to eat (except for stolen Parmesan) and are toileting in inappropriate places. The fruits of my womb are much the same as the cats (though they like what got dropped on the floor during a previous day's meal)! -- jennifer@...
