Regular readers of my irregular blog will know that I have become a composter this year. I am doing it entirely because it is trendy and middle class to do this. It is fashionable now to have a rotting pile of decaying vegetable matter next to your French windows.
However, I am getting a bit worried about the compost heap. There are quite a lot of flies in there now. Whilst, I am pleased to be doing my bit for the environment, I am not entirely convinced that giving over a corner of my garden to a swarm of disease ridden insects is a worthwhile price to pay for the fuzzy feeling inside engendered by the fact that I am a proud eco-Dutch-girl sticking my finger in the dyke of global warming.
In fact I suspect that the fuzzy feeling might actually be because one of the flies landed in my slice of Gallia melon earlier tonight.
