  1. Glad your brother is OK. Could have ended quite differently.
     
  2. You sure you wasn't in the area with one of your stray arrows, glad he's ok

  3. Glad you didn't get an Ix1 BMW as you will get Sciatica/slipped disc with that shit car.
     
  4. Is that electric? No thanks, rather walk
     
  5. Busy time of year for bee keeping. Collected two swarms yesterday and had to make up more hive stands and frames. Now up to 5 hives (from 2 at the start of the year). I still have a hive full of queenless bees and a box with the vicious grumpy bastards ones. I moved their box last night and got stung about 6 times, they even followed me back into the house!

  6. Had a Honey bee in my van going home from work Wednesday.

    He would have got in the van while I was working, he was released 20 miles away from there.

    Not sure he'll have got back to the hive sadly.
     
  7. So far, a delivery to Lincoln, soon. A delivery to Leeds.

    Later receiving my Ducati and waving goodbye to the Triumph... Better transfer the insurance.

  8. Do you have any websites about starting up bee keeping?
     
  9. Good luck! The only way I'd own a black car is if it was fully PPF'd.
     
  10. Deffo the hardest colour to keep clean. Probably why most commercial vans are white.
     
  11. :tired_face:
     
  12. Ceramic coating is your friend.

  13. IME silver cars look best for most of the time. Not that that helps you!

    I’ve had a few black vehicles and as stated cera coat does help.
     
  14. Blimey zhed good to hear he is still with us

  15. Today I have had a PET/CT scan at Barts Hospital.
    Lying still without moving for over half an hour is quite exhausting.

  16. Excellent choice and the red calipers look the part. Congratulations
     
    • Thanks Thanks x 1
  17. I’m the opposite. Black is my favourite colour for a car or bike yet I always seem to end up with silver ones
     
  18. Fascinating. Please keep these posts coming or maybe start a thread?

    Yeah I'd read in close detail too if you started a thread on the ins and outs of beekeeping. I get that it is definitely not a profit driven endeavour (and can be quite expensive to begin with), but the poetry of keeping bees and harvesting honey has a real attraction. :upyeah:
