Armed with my RCD and my bottom of the range lawnmower I have just hacked
my way through the back garden and collected a couple of bin bags full of
grass cuttings. We can't really organise composting just yet and it seems
absurd to put them in the bin so based on the five minutes where I was
paying attention in O-Level Biology (biodegradable aka BDG) I was thinking
of spreading them in the woods out the back. Is this environmentally sound?
If not then, given that we can't compost them, what is the best thing we can
reasonably do with them?

That is unlikely to do any harm, unless it is a very delicate wood
(i.e. don't do it if it is a SSSI). However, you could puncture a
few holes in the bags and leave them in a corner, and the contents
will start composting!
