Oak leaves for leaf mould?

Flummers, if you can arrange shipping, arrive with several rakes, several volunteers and help yourself

We used to use crushed laurel leaves in a jar to humanely kill butterflies for mounting when we were at school! Smells of Marzipan so probably cyanide gas! Wonder if walnut husks give off the same chemical?

Could google it but can't be bothered!

I've just abandoned the chicken wire composter in favour of a dalek - but one of the big boxy ones, because it's more efficient, I've tried a test in a smaller dalek against outside/chicken wire against in black bags and the dalek won easily.

Aaaw! and I though I was being so clever. Maybe I'll do one dalek for quicker results, but keep the chicken wire cage for the volume. I've too many leaves to all go in my daleks - and then where would the compost go. Perhaps I need pallet compost bin
