Collected two swarms today. One thing I never get tired of is how different bee colonies can look. One of these is noticeably darker than the other. Both are now safe, settled, and busy demolishing sugar gloop in their new hives at the quarantine apiary. ๐๐ฏ

Sunshine. Laughter on the water.
That's what you saw.
What you didnโt see: the darkest week of my life.
Then, at 6am... Police, blue lights, and a chance encounter with a celebrity that changed everything.
5 Years on, here's the truth. ๐๐ป

We bought a motorhome. ๐
Took it away for ONE weekend. Heating problems, stomach bug, near-crash, zero sleep, and elderly neighbours training for the World Door Slamming Championships. ๐
So, it's already on eBay. ๐

New Substack post.
Making friends when you have ADHD & Autism.
Turns out you can genuinely love people, crave deep connection, and still need 3 to 5 working days to recover from lunch with more than two humans.

I miss Otis SO MUCH, but a year on, itโs obvious we made the right decision to let him live with our closest friends back in civilisation. Been to see him today. He hasnโt changed a bit, and he recognised us immediately. ๐ถโฅ๏ธ
