    Do you pay staff for there dinner breaks?

    I expect my staff to take a 30mins dinner break at noon. Which is unpaid. Is this reasonable? If we are busy and they don't stop I pay them.

    Recycled Brown Bin Compost.

    Anyone using this compost on grassland ? I make haylage every year and have no livestock, I'm very reluctant to import Slurry or Dung as in the past I've found that it's a great way to import weeds /docks etc. It seems that at times this compost can be obtained FOC, so just thinking it might be...
