As for putting stuff on the compost heap, ref Monty's compost heaps,
he said on GW, that the ratio of paper to green leaf ?
I thought he said 20 to one , do you think he meant to say 20% ?

Thanks


20% I doubt if we put that much in.

You can see some of our shreddings in http://www.myalbum.com/Album=A7TCLLF7

20 to 1?

Mike
