Welcome home Max
Not much flowering down here, had to steal some frames of honey from a full super for some nucs that I had promised tonite. Nothing much apart from a few palms def no flow down here. We are so dry the grass is crunching underfoot now. Had a great crop of dandelions....didn't mow the place so the girls had something at least. Finally slashed the bottom paddock after a couple of months no flowers of any description and it was becoming a fire hazard. Everyone is a bit on edge with the slightest smell of smoke.
Had guests staying and a heap of people round for drinks on Sat night and ran out of water!! Long story but took me 7 hours to get pump going again.
Off to the big smoke, literally (Sydney) on Sunday for the Xmas break.
Hope you and yours have a safe and happy Xmas and the fires stay well away from us all...rain would be good too.
Cheers
Mark
