He reckons there were about fifteen thousand(!) in the hedge, which he also reckons will make him about forty pounds of honey. What a life that must be.

£40 or 40lbs? I hope the latter or it wasn't worth the trip and stings.
Yeah. Buying that many bees would apparently cost two hundred quid, which is why he doesn't charge to remove them.
Why doesn't he just breed them? Who goes around buying bees? Freak
Definitely a sexual thing.
I'm guessing you have to buy them to set up/expand.
So there's just some guy rolling around Hull calling himself a beekeeper and he doesn't have any bees?
In Hull, first you get the Bees, then you get the power, then you get the women.
He has bees, but he obviously wants more bees, so he goes and removes unwanted bees free of charge so that he has more bees. Whether or not he has ever bought bees, chances are somebody whose work is literally acquiring and keeping bees would know how much bees cost if you want to buy bees.
Bees.
Exactly. He can breed bees but if he can get free bees then why not take the bees?
Jesus. Bring back the aliases and personal threats.
Bees.
Beekeeping must be an incredibly tedious job.
Said the accountant
Well, yeah, I did appreciate the irony in that one, but nonetheless.
It seems pretty cool to me. You get to make honey, wear a fancy outfit and hang out with bees.
Are you describing prostitution?
Absolutely nothing to do with the weather. Appalling misuse.Quote:

I think being a beekeeper would be pretty cool.
Does anyone remember the video of that person that would grow bees, or some other flying bug, can't remember, and would feed them by getting her arm in there and getting stung? Proper mental.

Yep, sounds about right.
Friend of mine used to keep them and I always got a few segments off him the odd time but the farmer across the way started growing rape and the spray killed them all.
You can try it when you get laid off then.Quote:

It was great.
I'll find a similarly well paid role.Quote:

We had loads of bees in our loft last year, and the bee man turned up (on a classic motorbike in full leathers) and was SEETHING when he had to kill them instead of taking them all for his bee stock.
This weather though. :drool:
Sweated my stones off today. 28 outside, fuck knows what it was where I was working.
I love going out in this. Sitting at home is a real chore, though. It's heaving.
Any storm updates?
We had constant lightning strikes for 4 hours last night.
Got to skip the egg chasing and so glad I sold them Guns n Roses tickets, so I'm nice and dry on the sofa while them other sucker cunts get soaked.
We had a mad half-hour that started with golf ball sized hail.
Yeah we had a storm this morning. We got caught in it while walking down the High Street and had to take refuge in H & M. There was people screaming and all sorts, the sad cunts. It's been sunny all day since then. My shoulders look like I imagine the top of Foes head would if he ever left Scotland in the summer.
We had some thunder and lightning with heavy rain for about half an hour or so this morning but then it cleared up and ended up being another 24+ degree day.

:panda:
It's been muggy and cloudy here since about 2pm then it fucked it down from 7-9 with some pretty cool lightning. 7/10 as far as interesting storms go.
I'm 90% sure the world is ending over here.
We've went from a lovely warm week to a torrential downpour.
30c over the weekend and I'm not in work again until Monday. Barbecue central. :drool:
Bullshit it's translated to a heatwave here too. 38C. :sick:
Where are you?
Algarve.
Nice/nasty. I had similar in Cyprus and it's too much to sit out in. Find some shade near the bar.
It's fucking hot, and hospitals are even fuckinging hotterer. Horrid.
44c for you tomorrow :DQuote:
