The Sting

(viewed 408 times)
I haven't posted for a while. The veggies have been doing great, spent some time outside last night pottering.
Before I could take pics, a bee decided to fight back.
A bit of a scare, four hours in casualty, shedloads of piriton and steroids later, I can now declare gardening a dangerous pursuit.
Normal service will be restored when I get my nerve back
