I'm always on the lookout for ways to meet new people, and now I've found one, courtesy of this week's local paper. Yes, it's true, Suffolk County Council are looking for people to train as Master Composters.



The advert poses the rhetorical question "Are you interested in composting?", before going on to inform us that "becoming a Master Composter is a great way to meet new people". It's a brilliant marketing strategy, because let's face it, if you answered 'yes' to the first question, you're almost certainly someone who could do with getting out and meeting some new people.

I think I'll apply.
