Thank you. I have been assaulted by insects this week

Andy. Bees. I keep bees as you know, but I was going to collect a swarm that was already hived up by this elderly rather

a marvelous man called Jim Wiggins who is one of those people who Jim's been keeping bees forever.

And of course never has any veil or anything.

Just go, you know, bees, they'll be fine.

You'll just get that, you know, stuff it in grass in the front of the hive.

Stip stip a bit of bailing twine over the top and you can take it home.

But come in the evening, he said, don't come when they're out.

So I said, no, of course, I know bees well enough not to try and do anything with them when they're active.

So get there and of course it was an evening but it was warm, sultry and the bees were still,

there were still quite a few of them around the hive.

So I had a sort of light linen shirt on no veil no gloves so I just

thought oh it can't be that many of them started stuffing there immediately got

stung on my hand and then more got one caught in my beard another one stung me on it.

I'm looking at your cheek and think my face, the one side of my face

swallow, my hand was like a balloon.
