SUSHI GO!

Today I had intended to take the Xmas decorations down, but Wilson told me he had contracted that little-known affliction of anteaters, New Year Flu*.

I took his temperature and it was slightly above 'normal' so I gave him two paracetamol and let him sit quietly playing 'Sushi Go!' with the Bees.


The surprise hit over Xmas was the game of 'Sushi Go!' — Wilson got really into it and could soon beat all comers! 


He got a little bit morose a few days ago, and when I asked him what was the matter he admitted he was sad because he could never invent a game of such subtlety and depth. He said it put his own inventions, 'ANTicipate!' and 'Name That Ant!' in the shade.


I explained that he was still very young, and when he was older he would probably go on to invent great things — greater even than 'Sushi Go!' which did cheer him up.


Tomorrow, though, the decorations are DEFINITELY coming down!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, BEE-LOVERS!

Hello, we are The Bees, Polly and Billi, and this is our Guest Blog!

Welcome to 2016, which seems to be going pretty well. So far, anyway. 


Wilson stayed up until after midnight last night, to see in the New Year but mostly as an excuse to eat and drink far too much. As a result, he is still lying in bed in the tumble-dryer. Complaining of a headache. 


We welcomed 2016 in a much more civilised manner with a glass of Mead and some Royal Jelly sandwiches with the crusts cut off, meaning that we awoke this morning early, clear-headed and ready to go! 


Remember that every bottle of Mead and every jar of Royal Jelly that you buy helps bees less fortunate than us!


Anyway, Wilson will be back tomorrow. 


If he's got over his hangover.


We'll see you next month — until then, Beeeeeeeeeeeee good!
