"I have news" says my husband at dinner last night.
"Good news or bad news?" I ask.
"You tell me.." he says, smiling. "Do remember that guy I was in touch with in January? He called to say he's had a bad allergic reaction to a bee sting so he needs to sell his hives ASAP. There are a dozen hives, all the bees and some equipment."

Tomorrow evening we'll be getting at least one new hive and a ton of honey-making equipment which will need to be found a home. It's good news for Ale, bad news for me! 🙈
(Picture is Alessandro examining one of his bee hives on Sunday morning. The dots around him are the swarm of bees which emerge to protect their queen bee. I took the photo from the safety of the bathroom window because I'm not courageous/foolish enough to put my hand in a bee hive!)
