Maybe they complained it was unhyienic or something? I hope not. <BR/><BR/>Good luck with getting it up and running again.

So I do not know if the material from the working heap has been disposed of, nor the nearly finished compost which was half-shovelled out.<BR/><BR/>And you are right, many schools DO compost... including many in the City of York area. This morning, the leader of the council rang me to say he'd got my email, and seemed incredulous as a school near him has compost heaps and this is part of their curriculum.<BR/><BR/>I have just received an email from him saying he's taking action... yay! Cheered me up somewhat!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your supportive comment.<BR/>JohnCompost Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10270806060748616269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8521461115196530599.post-20133970003728093902009-03-04T13:17:00.000+00:002009-03-04T13:17:00.000+00:00I'm disappointed in the school dumping the compost...I'm disappointed in the school dumping the compost. Even if Health and Safety said to get rid, they could have contacted you to give you a chance of rescuing it. Did you find out where they emptied it?<BR/><BR/>I'm surprised also as many schools in my area are trying to earn green flag awards for becoming more "environmentally friendly". <BR/><BR/>Very disappointing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8521461115196530599.post-28807440024411704942009-03-04T12:10:00.000+00:002009-03-04T12:10:00.000+00:00Arrrgh!

I would be very happy to meet you... and if I'm 'swamped' with people, just come and join them, and say hello, introduce yourself!. I'd love to be able to put a face to a name!<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you enjoyed Carbon Detox, and I didn't laugh that much but there again, I'm not surprised as I don't like stand up comedy much. But there were a few laughs around the auditorium, and yes, I think everyone will have gone away with something new or clarified.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for this comment... and if you ever want to come and say Hi, meet Gill and see my untidy but productive garden, just ask... we love having visitors and make people feel welcome.<BR/>yours, JohnCompost Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10270806060748616269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8521461115196530599.post-27533814734595892802009-03-04T11:38:00.000+00:002009-03-04T11:38:00.000+00:00Enjoyed Carbon Detox Last Night.
