Bee

The price of our honey is increasing quickly, as our girls decide they want to live in a different postcode, and our lives are too full.

Our first inspection of 2022 leaves us full of hope that this year will yield a bumper crop of honey, and the girls will be settled.

We crop our first season’s honey, and enjoy the sense of fulfilment and learning that comes with this pass-time.

The first that I knew that something was “up” was a subconscious awareness of buzzing. Looking up from my Zoom call, I could see a swirling black mass of bees directly above our apiary. Shit…

Things have been a little frustrating, and we need more “golf shots” to keep us motivated.
