Me Again..... breathing heavily !!!!

Just had my first totally unscheduled hill ...big slope training 😩. As you’ve prob gathered I live on the side of a very long hill. My garden is about 100yds long and slopes down to a copse complete with stream at the bottom. My Other half is a Beekeeper and his shed for storing empty hives etc is at the bottom of the garden.....it’s also where I keep my lawn mower. So.... decided I really would have to tackle the 100yds of lawn today... either that or ask my local farmer for a couple of his sheep. Plods down to shed and opens door ..... met by very angry buzzing which I instantly recognised as A few very cross Wasps, which flew straight at me !!!! I kid you not Mr Bolt himself would have been eating my dust as I ran at full speed Up that big slope/hill to the safety of my kitchen. The wasps must have smelt the empty hives and decided it’s a good place to be. On the plus side 13 weeks ago I no doubt would have been stung cause no way could I have run back to the house. Thank you c25k 😊. Right i will now don my bees suit and evict the Wasps...., can’t be doing with Squatters. !!!

Fantastic Tonkabella! It’s amazing what we’re now capable of! Not all hero’s wear capes - some wear bee suits!

I have always wanted to keep bees, my neighbour did when I was growing up. We always had various flower flavoured honey from him.🀀

Love the photo 🀣

Do it then 🐝 contact your local bee keeping society and attend their course. Bee warned they are addictive 🐝🐝🐝

I used to have bees. It was a family thing. My dad kept them and so did my grandfather. But 18 months ago I got divorced and had to move to a smaller house with a tiny garden πŸ˜₯ My bees now live with my sister in South Wales.

Ohhhh I'm South Wales. Don't loose heart once a Beekeeper always a Beekeeper, one day you will be in a position to be owned by Bees again πŸπŸ˜ŠπŸƒπŸ½β€β™€οΈ
