BRITISH LIONESSES

Obviously we were very upset when the British Lionesses got knocked out of the World Cup, but now that the nicer weather has arrived we're re-forming our Uckfield Bees Football Club!

We were going to rename our little team the British Bee-esses, in honour of the British Lionesses, but it's a bit difficult to say – especially in footy chants – so we've decided instead on Uckfield Queen Bees FC!

🐝 SCIENCE NEWS:
Scientists are 'Surprised' that bees can Learn, Remember and Match Symbols. How stupid – if scientists had bothered to ask, we could have told them that, and challenged them to a game of football!

🐝 WORLD NEWS:
Utrecht in Holland is planting grass and wildflowers on the roofs of city bus shelters, to help bees! 

And in Sweden, McDonalds has opened a restaurant just for bees! 

We know fast food is bad for you, but it would be such a treat to take our boys Johnson and Johnson to a McDonalds and not have all the other customers swatting us away – it doesn't make us feel very welcome when we're having a family day out!

So anyway, we've been The Bees and we'll see you all next month for more Bee-related news and updates!

Until then, BEEEEEEEEEEEEE GOOD!
