Busy

When I got out my solar bees back in April, I was really disappointed to find they didn't work any more. I bought a replacement rechargeable battery but they still didn't work. I had other more pressing things to do and left them in a box.

Today my longstanding friends, B&L, who lent me their attic for ten months while the builders were here and I couldn't be, called to collect a food order I did for them while they were on holiday last week. Over tea and chat in the garden they saw my bees and said that they also had some so I told them mine no longer work. We took them apart and found at least one reason why. After we'd swapped chard from my garden with beans from their allotment, they left with my bees. Two hours later, L brought them back, re-soldered and re-glued, with one dead bee bypassed and the rest glowing again.

Happy!
