RE: Making Compost With Pet Waste
You can put pet poo in a worm farm, but if your dog/cat is on worm medication this will kill the earthworms too.

A worm farm is a great way to compost. ... View related article.

RE: Free Entertainment Ideas
The library is a great place to start, they usually have gossip magazines, the internet, and special interest books, cooking and crafts could be fun.

Day-trips to public spaces and exhibitions. I like the botanic gardens, museums, galleries, etc.

If you have an unemployment/pension card then you travel at discounted rates.

Visit people who are also at home family/friends or invite people over for a cuppa or picnic.

Bingo nights can also be a cheap night out, limit yourself to one book of numbers instead of 10.

Pub Trivia nights and Karaoke are also usualy free. If you are going for the entertainment and not the drinks it doesn't need to cost you a cent.

An exercise group eg walking/cycling will also be free and it is sociable, if there isn't a group in your area then ask a friend or neighbour.

I hope you find something you like. Keeping in contact with your friends and family is probably the cheapest way to pass the time well. ... View related article.
