Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
We missed out on the recent snow here, but the forecast seems to suggest that when the high presure over us finally gives way and allows a low pressure system in from the west, the wet air from the Atlantic will hit the cold air currently sitting on top of the UK and we could...
After to big freeze of last year, the winter of 2011-2012 has been fairly mild. So what does this mean for our honey bees? Well, we had a check on our three hives this winter and things don’t look too bad. It’s difficult to know if bees consume more food in warm winters than in...
