Our new hotbin composter was delivered today :cool: I hope it's as good as the reviews, 8 chickens = lots of of stuff to compost!
:wave:
Yes, but it's seriously good s**t, as Mr. Hbbb is always telling me (although he tries to do it in a Jesse from Breaking Bad kinda voice he can't really pull off)!
Be interested to hear how you find the hotbin, Mr. Hbbb's been making those kind of noises for a while (of course, it could be his age)!
Good luck with the promotion, hope to hear good stuff soon :TStash busting 2014 45 / 60 (balls of yarn)!

Do get your finger out - and can we have slimming friendly recipes please. Anything high fat can be planned in between 15th and 23rd April when I am on holiday, also on Monday evenings when I am busy. Please note I am going out on Weds 26th March so something quick and easy please.muddywhitechicken wrote: »:eek::eek::eek:"No pressure" :eek::eek::eek:

PS I eat anything except semolina and okra. Especially if combined :eek:.
