I would love to call myself a beekeeper. I am really doing that but I don’t have any bees yet. You can’t be a dog owner unless you have one so feel like I am a bit of a fraud at the moment. However I am able to chat on about bees quite alot now, I might even be qualified enough to do a school fete with the beekeepers association and answer simple questions!<\/p>\n
Our apiary manager suggested that when we get bees we might like to feed them. With sugar.

A cheaper version than the one from Lakeland I am hoping!<\/p>\n
Of course, this is all academic, we don’t have any yet! We are still non beekeepers. And anyway, I have to sort a pirate outfit for the cubs carnival float.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
