    Title says it all really - AES say they'll give us a compost bin when and as they roll them out; in the meanwhile it's lawn mowing season again and I've three bin bags full (bah bah) of cuttings since saturday.

    Is there a community composting group set up in Nenagh - does anyone know?

    I'm loathe to leave them out to ultimately go into landfill; especially if it'll be of use to someone.

    I asked one of the men working there and they'll also accept CDs and DVDs - he said to just put them in with the electrical goods.

    LOL :D:D:D

    I'd say it is safe to say the CD/DVDs that are destined for the recycling centre are probably all scratched and scrapped!!!

    Indeed - and most were old CDs and such off computer magazines that were at least 5, if not 10, years old - finally got around to clearing them out!
