Thanks sadly it dosent look so good at the moment, another job for the winter!!

If you could have a wish list of bee stuff for Xmas what would you want? I would have a new suit mines got holes in.

my bees quite often end up in the horses water trough so i pick them up and put them on the fence post to dry out then off they go.

i have 8 spare full national, i just enjoy making them and lucky enough to have lots of free wood.

My hives are on the edge of a field behind a hazel woven fence so i can stand about 6 feet away without a suit but have not tried sitting in front of them suitless, might be fun i might try one day.

Does anyone else just sit in front of their hives and watch what goes on for ages, it certainly relives the stress of the day.

I went into my hives with no gloves on for the first time and although a little worried i needn't have been as it was fine, i sure they will get me soon!!
