You know that here at Musicalit.ie we like nothing better than getting our teeth into a good website, whether it be practical, interesting or just plain fun. Every once in a while, we like to tell you all about them. So, why are you still reading this, check out our review of recyclethis.co.uk!

This week, it’s the turn of recyclethis.co.uk. “As the saying goes, necessity is the mother of invention”, and this was certainly true for Louisa Parry and John Leach when they set up their site asking the simple question: How can I recycle this?
This site started from a bowl of pistachio nut shells.
After we gorged ourselves on their lovely innards, they, the shells, just sat there, looking useful and versatile – but we [had] no idea what we could possibly do with them. Just throwing them on the compost heap seemed a waste – all the effort to make them tough and solid, and here we were just hoping they’d rot back down to mulch before the potatoes needed earthing up.
When we thought about it, we were in the same position with lots of things: leftover bits of food, old household items, empty containers of all shapes and sizes…
And so this site was born.
Updates are posted every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. and anyone is free to ask “How can I recycle…….”
For more information you can email them: items@recyclethis.co.uk, but first why not check out the site.
