    Do you keep bees or are bees part of a wider subject you're studying?

    Nah nothing to do really until spring. Then it can get a bit hectic. I tried a new anti-swarm thing which worked which was good. But it sort of meant less inspections which was a bit dull. Going to be starting a bee training project off in Spring which will be good.
    The supers are heavy when they're full but that means there's lots of honey.

    Ok.. I am a book nut and my niece got me a kindle (something I never thought I would ever use as I love the smell and feel of a book).. anyway have been reading tonnes of book, as loads are free on Amazon and I am going to recommend the following if anyone is needs a book to or 10 to read on holidays.

    Book series

    Gone (6 books in total) - everyone over the age of 15 suddenly disappears and the kids are left to defend themselves.. It was described as Lord of the flies meets X-men meets Stephen King. Bit gruesome in parts but excellent.

    The girl in the box (10 books, 1st 3 free on Amazon) - 15 year old girl has basically spend her life locked away by her mum and then her mum just disappears.. there is supernatural powered people in this book and I learnt so much about Greek gods from it

    The Testing (3 books) - dystopian series. At the age of 16 a girl is selected for the testing but it is not what it appears to be.

    Individual reads

    Ugly - book about domestic voilence. I never wanted to kill a fictional character more.
    The girl on the Train - Bestseller at the moment and is actually worth a read.
    While my eyes were closed - about a women who closes her eyes for a minute and her daughter has disappeared.


    There is loads more I have read so it these don't grab your attention I can recommend more!!
