Allotment - creating our own compost Dalek
The 'old' bin, then the pit dug for the new bin with gravel etc in the bottom (and a layer of wood ash from our bonfires as we didn't have charcoal) and then the new bin in place with its holes drilled in the lid but without its bubble-wrap insulation.
Now we'll see what happens with the kitchen waste we put in it ...
Thanks Andy for all the tips.

Can't wait to see how this works out!!!
It'll be interesting to see how it does. I have a dalek, but I don't dig pits or holes, or insulate it.
Best of luck! An expert we had talk at our Horticultural Society said don't bother with the lids but I still put mine on.
