TRAINING DAY

Wilson is indoors, frantically working to get the June page of his Free Calendar ready in time for June 1st – he says it's vital that it should be ready on schedule, as the 'Massive Event' it celebrates falls actually on the 1st.

Polly and Billi, meanwhile, are enjoying the sun in the garden, teaching their children how to collect nectar and pollinate flowers. 

Neither bee has been unable to shift the few grams they put on over Xmas, so they're using a tiny step ladder to access the flowers and demonstrate their pollinating and nectar-gathering skills; sadly, they can no longer leave the ground under wing-power alone.

This effort may be all in vain, however, as both their adopted children are in fact Ladybirds, so i fear the 'Bee Instinct' just won't be in their genes...
