I met Farokh the Beekeeper last week. He’d come up to the allotments for his weekly bee check.
First a little smoke
Then he checks the top frames
And then he looks for the queen in the lower frames
He also told me that his bees, living in the backpackers, are regular honeybees but the 'new' bees in posh hotel hive belong to Ian, the other beekeeper who I have never met, and are rare breed english black bees. Bees can find their own hive easily and don't get lost or mixed up, so long as there is about 6" space between hives. Amazing aren't they?!! Now I’m even more obsessed by the bees!
That evening I was at Andrew Logan’s studio where I met a friend whose husband is halfway through a beekeeping course. Small world!
I was there for Andrew’s summer jewellery sale where I was selling my Love Life tees and Andrew’s AMW t-shirts
and promoting Scarlett’s House of Heavenly Healing. I plan to resume healing sessions very soon and am taking bookings from about mid-July onwards. Actually I can’t wait!
