Dear Cellarites of Obscure Knowledge:
I send quite a lit of small parcels and need packing materials. Normally I just recycle what’s arrived, but lately I’ve been ordering less and I may have to buy some packing peanuts. They all claim to be biodegradable, but I think that’s not a legally-defined term. What are the green options and how do I find them?
Interesting question there, Dunnock.

I know that the cornstarch ones can either be composted, or dissolved in water.
Eco-Flo is a name that keeps cropping up.
There are Sossinges cooking…

No, it’s a joint of pork and someone else cooked it while I went to bed and slept for a couple of hours.
Bliss.
I have an sudden desire for crackling, which, given the parlous state of my teeth is better not being indulged!
Pleased that you got some sweep, Fishy.

Having trouble resisting these for the colour (they claim to be corn starch)…

They look splendid, Dunnock. I hadn’t thought about colours.

They look like malformed jelly-beans.
So do I, this evening. I’ll be back, in the morn.
Best nights, Cellarites,

Sleep well.

Splendid packing things those are
I am going home on Thursday
I got myself all panicked when a doctor asked about respite care and thought I was going to a home for a while
The nice nurse who we asked about it said that I am going home and not into care
I know that respite care is a necessity for some carers but the Bull is saying that he wants me home where I belong
I need gin gin and gin to get over the panic I was having
You’ll have to make do with gin gin gin gin and gin until the next tanker arrives.
One hopes that the Gin Sparrer is nearby…
