Compost Bloke isn't as interested in all this eco stuff as me, and, to be fair, is somewhat bemused by my efforts.
However, he's fully earned his name - and composting kudos. He's not super big on gardening, mostly sticking to mowing the lawn and pruning things, but for years while I wasn't here he faithfully dug all his compost scraps into the garden.
As a result the soil is brilliant - rich, dark, free-draining. So in spite of my somewhat scrappy efforts this season, the garden has taken off.
Now that it's late February the cherry tomatoes are booming.
And here's the payoff for Compost Bloke - he's rather partial to those little sweet tomatoes.
