Tuesday, 26th May 2015 - Hatching Bee

Tim and I did our first unaccompanied bee hive check. I puffed the smoke while Tim dismantled the hive. We saw lots of bees and capped brood cells but neither of us had a clue as to what we were checking for, so I did a bit more smoking and we put it all back together again. A success I think.

Mum and Lindsey dropped by for a mug of tea in the sun. It has been a glorious day for weather. 

Our 'new to us' little red car has been washed and cleaned inside and out by Tim and Hetty. I look forward to taking it for a spin.
