Is this what I think it is (in the context of compost activators)? Would
hate to make a horrible mistake

gI assume so, depends where you saw it mentioned. You will find that
recycled beer, tea, coffee or any other liquid works just as well, and is the
best possible compost activator. Personally I find a man with a bottle a
useful extra piece of equipment (er, in the composting sense, that is) but I
do know that other lady urglers provide their own. I leave it to 'im
indoors'.

It's what you think it is. Years ago, we had a long-running discussion
about the practicalities.

I used to know someone who put the success of his prize-winning leeks down

A bit like the old joke - boy and girl out on primary school picnic.
Girl goes for a pee and gets stung by nettles. Boy goes for a pee. Girl
says - "My, that's a handy thing to bring on a picnic". Ba-dum-tish.
