I still hate the hotbox. At the top it is all hot (100 degrees!)and rotty and it smells nice and 2 days after you put things in, it’s covered in mould and starting to break down. But at the bottom, it’s still wet, sticky, smelly, full of smushed cardboard and fluid and sticks. How hard can it be? I took a tiny bit out – I’m not taking any more for months now and it’s still smelly mulch at best. But maybe, just maybe there are a few a bits that look like proper compost – like the sponge at the bottom of a trifle..
