reducing waste
some great ideas there for reducing waste. What about the really strong cardboard which comes in the box when you buy some electrical product like i did recently. ( A new scanner for the printer)? Could you fill this with compost and use to plant seeds in it I wonder? Would it decompose in the soil eventually? Just thought of that yesterday. May be a good way to give seedlings a chance to grow before reaching the soil itself?!! Has anyone else tried this before? Would love to hear...

Bin charges
This will be the 3rd year of doing this and have found it a FAB IDEA. Cut your bin charges in half by sharing with your neighbour. Most of us put out a half full bin weekly or just put it out every 2 weeks even though we have paid for a weekly collection. Here in Carlow e27/month is the charge and in my case am sharing with 2 other households. e9/month - Saving us each e216 yearly.
