Mainly B's

Sun actually made an appearance or two today.

Have been waiting anxiously for a delivery of "floorboards" for the bee hives and thankfully they arrived today. Flash loves the chance to open packages. He doesn't otherwise ever touch boxes but if given the command, he will set to work in the hope there is a supply of frisbees or balls inside. Not today, so he gave up once he had worked out what the contents weren't.

MrB came by on his Eicher Mammut tractor to deliver a large quantity of honey. Angie's work colleagues are ordering it like crazy at the moment. My exclusive (or perhaps better said illusive) honey remains "Not for Sale" not even for Amex Platinum Card holders.

The new beehive floor boards are a bit luxurious but I owe it to the girls after treating them so badly this year. In return, I hope next year to get some of the investment back!

In the evening waited for Corinna & Angie to return from a ride with Sultan & Rosie before moving the hives on to the next floorboards. My last attempt ended with some very angry bees. Once horses and the girls safely packed away, managed the move with only one hitch. More on the bee journal
