Disaster. The gale we had here blew my hive over. I found it this morning strewn accros the orchard.
I will learn in future to have it strapped down and a few bricks on the roof. Its been a bad couple of months as I broke my leg and not been out, I determinedly hobbled accros to asses the damage today and it was not good.
Any tips for the future ?
If I put a nuc out any chance some will have sheltered in a hole in a tree and come back (cat in hells chance I suppose).
I'm determined to have another go but feel really bad at moment.
