I started gloveless and only wear nitriles now to keep reasonably clean hands. I think my handling without gloves is much more careful tho.
Now calm down dear, its not good for your blood pressureI must say all these beekeepers semi naked under their suits sounds a bit alarming

It can be quite liberating Dani, especially with a neck fan!

unless the fan drops off and lands in your trousers
What trousers?unless the fan drops off and lands in your trousers
exactly!
But where will Grandma fit into it????
We are still rainless. This morning ( half past 5) I woke to do some job while it isn't too hot ( I IDIOT trusted again as they said it will be 22C in the morning).. Well it was close - it was 29C.. But stubborn as I am.. I didn't quit.. Instead of rain we got storm wind ( lot of fruits and leaves went on the ground).. Like it isn't enough drought as it is, addition of wind to further strike the plants, fruit trees.. We must be a real great sinners for this to happen.. Tomorrow I wouldn't be surprised in addition to droughts and strong winds some Armageddon like fires scorch and don't stop untill they hit the Alps.. This is only logical continuance to me.. Of course on prognosis they say almost every day is some rain at my place ( local shower, storm, heavy showers, storms etc..).I have been to Croatia four times in the summer. It can be so hot. I cannot imagine wearing a bee-suit when it is like that! A Swienty Breeze suit with nothing worn underneath may be the only answer I think?
Are all flying bees worthy?
She knows how to handle an umbrella
There’s lots of weird stuff going on with the weather. Hope it sorts itself out for you Goran.
Weather.. maybe we don't deserve better ( what You reap is what You sow). Like with all these weapon rattling around a globe - nuke explosion is certain to me..
Yes.....the thunderstorms we have witnessed were the biggest I've ever seen. There were huge fires in the hills during our first visit in about 2013. There were great plumes of smoke and often a smell of burning' even on the beaches. Planes were constantly scooping water up in the bay at Cavtat to quench the flames that could be seen glowing at night.
After such horrid weather, won't be surprising to see little tornadoes.. We had couple times at my place such. When I was a kid, in a village nearby I saw curtains hanging out between room ceiling and attic floor ( it must lift up and put down the roof).Yes.....the thunderstorms we have witnessed were the biggest I've ever seen.

You have a country of great extremes. I have experienced 40 deg C there. The only other place I've experienced that heat was the Thar Desert in Rajasthan. Even one of our camels fainted then! Yet we were told that there is almost constant rain when the summer is over. I saw film of a storm near Dubrovnik that ripped up boats that were supposedly safely tied up in a harbour. One year there was even snow in the hills above Split we were told.
I keep meaning to go back in the late autumn to see for myself if things are as bad as we were told. I was seriously thinking of relocating there a while back. After seeing many of your posts on here though, I think I have all the confirmation I need!
