Eco Living

Saving the planet seems to be the BIG thing at the moment - and rightly so, our Spanish neighbour is a hard core recycle fanatic...blue and yellow bins in the garage..that type of thing. She has scoured Barcelona and Madrid for a can crusher but couldnt find one. 5 minutes on Ebay and 12 quid later we had two on order.



Caves are great eco - dwellings so we are already doing our bit but I just couldnt resist the can crusher! It will also save on bin liners, not that I drink much beer...



Orce, as with every rural village has all the coloured bins for recycling so off we go with a box of squashed tinnies when we get enough.

Save the planet? Why not, we only have one planet Earth..

We have exactly the same plan. We are waiting for our new extension to be built and then we are installing different recycling bins (and funnily enough we have got a can crusher). Ramon drinks plenty of beer so the can crusher will be ideal.

How did you get on with your compost heap? did think about starting one but not sure about all the ants.

Not enough cans to crush? Just invite the neighbours...
