Keep the room warm and draught free
And don’t hurry

With the amount of rain coming in today there's not much chance of that ...

Don't you just love autocorrect (Not ...)

I’m so cheesed off with it. It’s just annoying for me as a hobby keeper but what it’s doing to commercials is just awful.

It's hopeless ... the poor bloody bees have no hope with this feast and famine weather and the temperatures are just diabolical for June.

I feel for the commercials ... at least we don't have to rely on it for a living but I will be lucky to even break even this year let alone make a profit. Argyle Enterprises will have to diversify ... woolly jumpers for bees anyone ?
