Black Friday Sale,Uh oh!

Did you see any bargains? I never do, in fact one item I had in my basket of a well known online retailer went up in price.

But then I got the Thornes promotional email (feel free to advertise on my blog, Thornes) and a second hive just slipped in to my basket with a saving of over £100!!!

Its our Christmas gift to each other, hubby and I.  It arrived today, soon to be installed at the apriary with the faint and distant Christmas wish that a colony will take up residence all by themselves in the spring.

We are thinking we might have to identify some additional labour now. The hunt for a secondhand and cheap aged 9 bee suit is on. The boy can become an apprentice beekeeper.
