Need to turn the compost. It's been going for almost a fortnight so depending on its temperature I might be able to hoik it over into the tin bay to slowly finish. I have another 1/2 trailer load of rabbit poo waiting plus bags full of greens at the ready. The peas have finished cropping so can be chopped into the next batch and the perennial kale has gone bonkers (6 foot tall and very dense foliage) so will stand to be cut right back.
