Default Novel way of ripening green tomatoes

I took the kitchen waste to the green - Darlek type - compost bin on the
allotment this morning, tipped it in and stirred it around. Then I
spotted some red tomatoes. They looked healthy, not rotten or broken.
Fished on out. Perfectly ripe, ready to eat. Then it dawned on me. My
partner had got rid of all the green tomatoes from the greenhouse at the
end of October.
So now we can enjoy the last of the tomatoes, about half a kilo.
