Intermission 2

We had book group last night via zoom. Not quite the same, particularly the lack of sharing wine and chat. But it worked pretty well, Danielle in the chair. We discussed The Periodic Table by Primo Levi; most people liked it but found it a bit disjointed. Others went off to read his other books.
We collected bees from the Wolds on Tuesday, Thursday they decided to re-queen and swarm into an additional colony in our bamboo plant. As I type Danielle is fully kitted out and trying to tempt the new colony into a nice clean hive she has waiting for them: house lockdown until she is successful. Here is a photo of The Beekeeper and The Beekeepers Apprentice taken on the roof 14 years ago.
