Failed Projects
You start off with the best of intentions, but through raging incompetence, ineptitude or the plain fact that you're working in IT, things go terribly wrong and there's hell to pay. Tell us about the epic failures that have brought big ideas to their knees. Or just blame someone else.

Bad smell?
It's too wet. I had this problem initially: you've got to try and balance soft, moist, "green" items with drier "brown" ones. So all your garden and kitchen stuff will provide plenty of green, but in order to balance the excess moisture, try throwing in things like sawdust, wood chippings, ripped-up paper, tissues. It sounds like you need a moisture buffer quite urgently, so I'd recommend some straw if you've got any knocking around.
Then take a piss on it.

Apparently
Lady pee doesnt work, so ive heard, and somehow I dont think asking my 70 yr old neighbour would be appropiate ;)
It does have shredded newspaper in it and I added worms, but they probably wriggled off somewhere more hospitable.
I think I'll grit my teeth, add more paper and give it all a good old stir, bokes

How odd
The reason urine works is, I believe, due to the nitrogen in it. And everyone's urine has nitrogen in it, so I presume it's the hormones in lady-whizz that have a counterproductive effect. (For example, ever had a female dog piss on your lawn? The grass that received it goes all yellowy and takes a long time to recover...)
