Are you all aware that the council are planning on making us pay to park at Ogden? Letting you know so you can object if you wish
Email. [email protected] FAO parking services deadline 12 June
I’m also going to be contacting local councillor
Please share
Thanks

I fear this will just push people to park on the main road which is way to fast for pared cars and people wondering around.

Another little insight in to the bee world for you all… 🐝🐝

A beehive is not just a storehouse of honey; it is a powerful example of discipline, responsibility, and teamwork. 👑 The Queen begins new life, the Drones protect the lineage, the Nurse bees nurture the next generation, the Guard bees defend the hive, the Foragers gather food, and the House bees maintain and organize the home. Each one plays their part, and together they build a strong and thriving kingdom. 🐝✨ Nature teaches us that when we work together, even the impossible becomes possible.”

When the weather turns cold and the bee’s are hunkered down for winter .. They don’t hibernate older bees die off , the drones (male)bees die off , the queen and the ladies cluster together to keep warm .. make comfort trips to the door to clean out debri and feast on the honey reserve the made through spring and summer.. Wait out the cold for spring. 🐝🐝🐝

Amazing 🐝🐝🐝

A tiny mouse can be drawn to a beehive by the irresistible scent of honey and the warmth inside. Hungry or seeking shelter, it dares to sneak in… not realizing this choice will be its last.
Once the bees sense the intruder, they immediately defend their home — attacking with fierce unity until the mouse’s life ends.
But the real challenge begins after the danger is gone. The mouse’s body is too large to remove from the hive.
And this is where the bees reveal their instinctive genius.
Rather than leaving the body to decay and spread disease, they seal it completely with a special substance they make — **propolis**.
🌿 Made from tree resin and beeswax, propolis is:
• Antibacterial and antifungal
• Moisture-resistant and preservative
• A perfect natural sealant
Layer by layer, the bees encase the mouse in propolis, turning it into a harmless, mummified relic within the hive — no odor, no infection, no chaos.
This isn’t logic or reason — it’s divine instinct.
An unseen wisdom guiding these tiny creatures to preserve purity and order in their world.
**Truly… Glory be to the One who taught them what they did not know.** 🐝✨
