Christmas Visitors

A smallish swarm of bees thought about setting up hive in our downstairs last week. Monkeyboy & The Gentleman thought it was marvelous. I found them wearing bike helmets & waving sticks, dancing with glee  in the middle of the buzzing bees. I had a hard time convincing them that bees might sting them, & thankfully none of them did. Eventually the bees dissapeared as mysteriously as they arrived. Bees are supposedly an omen of visitors to the house, so when Nanny turned up for a short stay ('Surprise! you've got me for 5 nights, not 2!') I thought that was that. So imagine my surprise when 2 dear old friends from school turned up for a 5 hour marathon coffee & chat!

20 years ago we where the best of friends, & I am delighted to find that we still are.
