Covid-19

[Beefriendly]

Just tried to buy an ordinary packet of ibuprofen. It is suddenly four times the price it was last month. Someone is making the most of it. I think my honey is going to be four times the price too!

That is if any can drive to your place to buy some.
Just done a couple honey runs today, shifted a lot of jars....now preparing more summer blossom to jar.

Strangely the local towns market was still on, although well down on traders. But I ask you .....three or four tat stalls with cheap clothing and shoes..... nowt essential about them.
Supermarket shelves are filling up although still a lack of bread and toilet rolls and Paracetamol....
Strangely also a lack of cleansing products, except for thick bleach!

That reminds me, got about half a dozen or more boxes stashed away from my days on the boats, I'd better step up security!!

Grrrrrr
First I buy propanol at a ridiculous price and you have a gallon stashed away. Now I search for necessary PPE and you have boxes secreted away. What next? What else have you hidden in your bee shed?

I wish I could say that I'm shocked at the stupidity of the British people, sadly, I'm not.

Going to have to cut a nice yew branch and make a bow. Make some metal arrows and pluck a few feathers from the chickens. Spend a bit of enforced idleness time practicing with a straw bale target
