The Fellowship of the Bin

Always interesting walking around my parent's garden and seeing what has changed since my last visit. My dad has quite an organised system with his compost bins, although he did manage to melt one when he put some hot ashes in - the compost was busy smouldering away the next day.

A couple of trees are still lying on the lawn where they fell in the recent storm - dad had cut around them a few years ago to stop them growing and has been waiting for a strong gust to take them out. They also have an amazing crop of bracket fungi on a couple of old tree stumps, some of which they have been eating after the window cleaner(!) told them they were edible.
