    Asian Hornets...

    Fear not, Newhaven got a BeeBase mention today. Folkstone seems to be clocking up nests at the moment.

    Bee Wagon recommendations

    Had an ex environment agency Mitsubishi outlander with a flat bed conversion bulkhead and reversing camera. Had electronic 4wd (high ratio only). Did about 40mpg and no dpf. Boot capacity was better than most king cab trucks. The passenger doors were great as all the kit was readily accessible...

    Happy Christmas/Pagan Winter Festival….

    Did notice she coped with the November 5th explosions quite well. Not phased by loud noises at all. Is seems to be faint rustling noises that set her off. She’s quite small but can make an exceedingly large noise!

    Happy Christmas/Pagan Winter Festival….

    Seasons greetings to all. Wax processing today and a cocker to walk before friends come round for lunch. She’s a working girl so bounds of energy. Recon when I get back I’m the one slumped over the Turkey while she’s still bouncing about and got her nose into everything!

    Robert Lee - Uxbridge

    Used to have Mrs McDougal (of flour fame) living opposite. Mum mentioned Mrs McDougal had the only chauffeur driven split Screen Morris Morris Minor she knew of. Dad mentioned later in life Mr Tate and Mr Lyle were customers of his shop too. It’s a small world.

    frame numbers vs honey yield

    I’ve short chubby fingers and large palms. Not a great combination for being a pianist or playing with castellations! Got injured several times so got rid of castellated runners and now suffer less.
