The question is how RTĂ end up with current affairs presenters in what is mostly a light entertainment show. I know there is usually the misery slot but wasnât it once upon a time more about debating social issues?
You must be South Derryâs best known and popular apiarist.
Youâre having a good run with them. Not my cup of tea but different strokes for different folksâŚâŚ
Where was I - Iâm beginning to wonder was I inadvertently committed for a week or moreâŚ.
All well and yes, plenty of bees about, the pictured ceanothus is buzzing with them.
The fir is of limited useâŚthey chew out some resin which they then use to make a sort of glue with antiseptic properties. They can get nectar from the heather, which makes a jelly like honey- one thatâs difficult to work with but fairly lucrative
Youâre possibly (youâll note the use of possibly) confusing the noble fir with the absolute abomination that is the furze bush (whins we call them). The only plus to the whin is their colouring - green and gold.
Youâre on the ball apart from that. I might add it been a fabulous Spring for rushes. Theyâre greener, stronger, bolder and more plentiful than ever. If they were cannabis plants theyâd fucking dieâŚâŚ
