… and the bees won. We extracted 23kilos of honey yesterday, which was a bumper crop [with more to follow] and good news. The bad news was that Milo decided to try and eat as many bees as he could whilst Danielle and Rowan were bringing in the honey frames. The bees did not think a lot of this and decided to fight back, or more literally, to sting back. The result was a very very sorry Milo with 8 stings and a lot of illness. We thought he might actually be on his way out to the great bee-hive in the sky, but he seems to have pulled through.
We had to hire a car in the States. We got what they call a "mini-van" but what I would call a truck. Here it is, with Danielle distancing herself from it.
