Where You Bin? Turning Compost !!

Through a light dusting of drizzle 5 Lambeth GoodGymers gathered to help Incredible Edible with their compost bin project.

We had a logistical challenge with Paul joining us walking while the group was running to the task and so trying to plan a route where we would meet at the same time while travelling at different speeds was like a primary school maths problem (Mandy is cycling at x and Billy is walking at y speed - where will they meet)..... Suffice to say AA Yianny failed the equation with aplomb!

The running group of Mark, Tilly and Michael set off from Papa's and headed towards bin number 3 with the plan being to turn the compost in that bin, bin 2 right next to it and then meet Paul at bin 1 as he arrived.

Our first challenge was that all the compost turners or 'pokers' seem to have disappeared and so we were looking for big sticks or branches to do the job with but thankfully it not being Spring yet, nature was happy to provide. After some disagreements with the padlocks and finishing the first two bins we set off to bin Number 1 only to find Paul walks very quickly and had been waiting for 10 mins :0(

We had the same issue at every bin so were always on the look out for big sticks to turn the compost and were able to get through 5 bins in total with the last one being very.... humid.

Anyway we headed back at walking pace having put in a good shift and a solid 5km of run / walking.

Big thanks to all and see you at the next one!
