Good Morning,
We are looking at placing a Bee Hive at the top of the site by the trees near where Denzil tends to sit. I have talked to the closest plot who have no objections. This would benefit everyone. If I receive no objections we will go ahead with it. As you most likely know as long as you dont harass the bees they wont harass you.

Future Burial Extension
As you may have seen the Future Burial Extension has been cleared, the plans are to have this area grassed. However I have approached Ellie who is happy for us to have flower borders around the outside. Once the grass comes through I will be blogging on here to see who would like a border around the outside to grow flowers. Depending on numbers will depend on the size of the border. I think the fairest way is once I got the number of people who would like a flower border we will size the borders number them and pull names out of a hat. Hopefully this will bring some colour and encourage our bees.

Bees coming Monday....?
Nick came by last night to look at the position for the bees... he was very happy.
He did say that having been moved, the bees will be a bit all over the place, so he decided Monday when less people are working their plots - and perhaps it's a little cooler - would be better to bring the bees...
I am very keen on bees,
I am very keen on bees, sounds good to me, but have you talked to Denzil and Hilary about this if it will affect their shaded seating? They don't use the internet so will need a proper chat!
Simon's been leading on this
Simon's been leading on this and as he said in his original post he's talked to the closest plots and I think he also said either in his blog or when I saw him that he's spoken to Denzil too...
I'm not quite sure whether we get any of the honey as rent that would be good! :)
The Bee's have landed
I have been to the Bee hive location today, I stood in front of the hive and sat in Denzils chair for half an hour and the bees did not come near me. Think it will be fine if we give them a chance

Brilliant news - welcome bees ;)
That's great news. Thanks for organising this Simon!
I'm sure they'll be fine too if we just give them some time to get used to us - and perhaps make a special effort to make sure it's easy for them to find some water while this very hot spell continues?

Would like to take credit but all down to Nigel
