Most honey is made nowadays by feeding the bees, unfortunately.

There’s absolutely no point in buying brand/supermarket honey…even if not made by feeding sugar it still would have had the good pasteurised and filtered out of it. Heather honey might be an exception

Lads buying honey in the supermarket may as well be eating acid. It should only be bought from a local beekeeper

I was badly stung by a bee yesterday.

20 fucking euro for a pot of honey.

None of the wankers on the gardening thread like @TreatyStones , @FatChops or @TheUlteriorMotive
would ever dream of educating a fella like this. They’re all about aesthetics and trying to get one up on the neighbours instead of trying to help the environment. I’ll be planting an array of these plants once I know how.

You’re so badly out of your depth here I’ll take pity on you. And as a result, I’m delighted to announce I’m now providing Gardening Assistance to townies. If you are having trouble making sense of your B&Q or Homebase gardening fliers you can talk to me.

Apologies to my regular clientele, you may experience a delay in consultation. Please be patient as this is a civic responsibility we all share. We may just save this planet, one townie at a time.

I would imagine they have most of these things in their gardens already

You’re a bad bastard

Didn’t Hector have some piece on the podcast recently about planing wild flowers on the ditches near his house with a neighbour?

Here’s a deadly deal for you Thomas. 24 ‘large’ plants for 17.99…it’s like finding money on the street so it is. I’d be sceptical about how large they are but a good price even for plugs

We have a bit out the back too which looks on its last legs every winter and comes back flying in the spring. We get shit loads of bees in the garden late spring / early summer.

PS. I’m still holding out hope for the pictures of Claire Byrne @glenshane

[glenshane]

I think it benefits from an aggressive trim from time to time…the bush that is…the lavender bush…

[Arthur]

Nine bean rows will I have there and a hive for the honey bee

Just ordered these seeds, the “Buzzing 20’s” Bee revolution has begun

When i read this I thought of the loyalist boast about ulster’s sacrifice at the somme…First over the top, their reward for loyalty was to be assigned cannon fodder status. On the other hand the price for being discriminated against was to be safely back in HQ pouring port and lighting cigars for the top brass.

[glenshane]

What’s going on here? Patches of this gloop are appearing in one of our fields. At first I thought it was maybe a bullock coughing up cud something, but there hasnt been any livestock there for a week or so. Now I’m beginning to suspect that it’s some class of manna from heaven…or ectoplasm maybe

[Corksfinedtboy]

Like a battered onion gone wrong

@PhattPike

I feel duped and unsatisfied.

This remains a disappointing thread.

[Batigol]

Every bump is a kick in the teeth

I am sick of the political class in Dublin making a beano off the people of Irelands hard earned euro. I am calling for action. Something has to be done

[Iggy]

Claire Byrne making me feel sympathy for Nigel Farage here. She really is an awful hack.

[Lazarus]

Claire Byrne is a national treasure

Caolán Mc Aree

[glenshane]

Ffs, her on her wee soapbox. Is she accusing him of being a closet Republican or something. It must be cgi…the jokes on me. Fair cop

[Enrique]

Ah yeah, the hard hitting, fearless journo routine with Farage but spends the rest of her time as a defacto government mouthpiece, pushing covid scare propaganda along with demonizing unvaccinated citizens.

She’s a transparent fraud and a disgrace.
