Not quite so simple though:It depends what kind of plastic’s used as some is more easily recycled than others. The worst are those that use layers of different kinds and non-plastic materials, e.g. walkers crisp packets. Ideally there’s be no plastic at all but a biodegradable starch-based material that’d begin to break down after the use-by date of the packaged object and could then be composted.
Not quite so simple though:
A) Walkers are recycling crisp packs now
B) some compatible plastics won’t break down in domestic compost, ruin the recycling system if they get in with the non-compost stream, and can sometimes break down unpredictable.
C) making paper isn’t that environmentally friendly what with the bleach.
People are working on it but some swaps aren’t always the best.
What do you mean? We did win!You mean we’re not winning
I only found out we won because a neighbour came over and mentioned it. I excpect I won't notice much of the goings on next year, as I don't have a television and not sure where it will all happen but it definitely won't be near my house on the edge of the Dutch worldPhew! We dodge the ball of hosting the kitsch-fest and all it’s supporters, tv crews and divas next year.
Your latest avatar with the robin feeding her clutch seems very appropriate.
Your last one may have scared the baby granddaughter.
No grand- or other children around here, so I find the little b*****s everywhere. Usually with a bare foot. They have a close resemblance to Lego's in the sound you hear when finding one. As per forum rules I can't describe that particular sound apart from ****, ****** ************, **** ** ***. *****.My biggest bug bear is the little plastic covers on needles. Found it a huge worry if I dropped one, in case grandson found it.
