    Oh Headfry, you must be terrified - is there no treatment available?

      Oh god Headfry, I genuinely hope everything is okay...

      And on a wider scale that's bad news... bees are struggling to survive as it is at them moment without disease like this

        Maybe Bees bums were the inspiration for the video

          Oh Headfry, all my thoughts are with you and wishing for good news from the inspector. How dreadful - is there any kind of prevention if you get the all clear? Thinking positive thoughts for you and your girls.

          As if bees generally didnt have a hard enough time ... this is all they need.
          Life may not be the party we hoped for but since we're here we might as well dance

            Hi guys, no nothing much I can do really apart from fingers crossed. I have followed all the rules of hygiene etc, so just have to tough it out.
            If it's European Foul Brood I might stand a chance of keeping hive and even maybe the
            girls.
            If it's the American one then it's burn the hive and kill the bees.
            big sigh as I typed that!
            HW love the clip made me smile. fab track but, no not like that!

                Thanks

                Thank you for asking, Headfry my friend (Elaine) is alright now but still gets upset when the anniversary of her losing the flock comes round each year. She has never replaced the sheep but keeps ducks and rabbits instead.

                  I don't know you either Headfry but I wanted to add my good wishes and positive thoughts for Tuesday. I too really enjoy your posts and love to hear how your wonderful girls are doing too, you write with a passion and gentleness that is wonderful to read.

                  Good luck. I have everything crossed for you.

                      I don't think the majority of people realise what life would be without bees. For all our sakes I hope all goes well.

                          That clip of the bee dance is fascinating Headfry. Hope all goes well with the inspection, poor little bees have a lot to contend with don't they.

                            OH NO! poor bees! poor headfry!
                            fingers and toes crossed for you, have you told the bees why the inspector is coming or will that just scare them?
                            poor things, we will be thinking of you all.

                                Yoanbob, I will tell girlies tomorrow, I am sure they wont mind (someone new to sting )
                                My troubled mind does stray to my little box of mischief over on the plot.Tuesday can't come quick enough, although I am worried about the possibly out come.

                                Thank you all once again, you have been very kind with your thoughts and words. Have a great weekend
