That depends on how far your back door is from the comp*st heap.

Extra marks for a direct hit from someone-else's back door.


Even more marks if you can hit the neighbour's cat.

1) How does it work?

To get a good compost heap, you need a mix of carbon rich material and
some nitrogen material - I think alot of the "compost activators" are
just materials with lots of available nitrogen. Urine contains Urea
which
contains Nitrogen, which can be used by the bugs etc in the heap.


Does it count as showing off if you activate the compost whilst standing
at the back door?


It would here. My compost heap is 200 yards away down the garden ;-)
