It seems like ages since we’ve seen the sun, but it made a brief appearance here on\u00a0Sunday\u00a0so we went for as little walk around Ynyslas.<\/p>\n
I’d already been out for an early morning bike ride and a swim and then had come home, done loads of chores and had even popped out to feed the bees. Since wrapping them up for winter we hadn’t really had chance to do anything with the bees, but I’m pleased to say that all four hives had bees in them still and they were all fairly lively and seemed pleased with the fondant I gave them. After decorating\u00a0our Santa Christmas Cake<\/a> with icing the other day it only seemed fair to give the bees a Christmas treat as well. The warm, and very wet weather we’ve been having recently probably\u00a0hasn’t done them any favours though as they will have been fairly active and therefore will have been busily eating their way through their stores. Hopefully the fondant I gave them on Sunday\u00a0will be just what they needed.<\/p>\n Dave and Sarah then came over and we all headed out into the sunshine for what was planned to be a walk along the Leri. We started crossing the field and as we did so, the heavens opened and it started absolutely pouring with rain, coupled with a strong wind too. We weren’t really ready for this, Anna and I were wearing jeans, Morgan had shorts on and we were soon all thoroughly soaked. Morgan wanted to turn back and go home, but by the end of the field it had at least stopped raining. It wasn’t comfortable in soaking wet clothes but we decided to at least have a little walk around\u00a0Ynyslas.<\/p>\n\n\t\tA Walk around Ynyslas<\/h2>\n
