Went to visit one of the beekeepers today, got there to see the hive empty and never occupied 'I thought you said she had bees' I said to my assistant 'she does' he said pointing at an outbuilding 'she wants you to move them into there' he said pointing at the hive.
Anyone fancy a bash at it? no problems with demolishing the wall, it's mostly mud and twigs - she'll make it good afterwards no quibble and they are very laid back bees - for Africans!
Typical - hive in the orchard set up ready for residents and they go and settle in a wattle and daub wall! You try explaining you don't do cut outs to a big African lady with bees less than ten feet from her front door!!!
