Don't know the technical stuff properly but apparently it's something to do with a healthy hive growing and the bees needing more room so they grow a queen and split off from the main hive.

Think it's more involved than that - bees very clever.


I saw the swarm ( and the unnecessary hysteria from several members of the public ) and luckily was able to contact my friend who was visiting from Cornwall. She has years of bee keeping experience and she rescued said swarm with the aid of a net curtain and gardening gloves for protection and the loan of a fantastic ladder from the public spirited DIY shop

(tu)PLOUGH HOMECRAFT (tu)

To whom a HUGE thankyou.


But and this is a big but - she was only just in time . The police had called Southwark Pest Control and they had arrived ready to destroy them .

How terrible when bees are dying at an alarming rate. Couldn't there be some sort of system where there was a rota of local beekeepers on call to rescue any swarms and the police/ Southwark had their numbers ?

      JP Plastering - John McCann - Recommended Plasterer

      By Ms P · Posted

      John recently skimmed the walls in our front room lounge, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and easy to work with.   He arrived on time each day and kept me updated on progress, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The quality of his plastering is smooth, even, and ready to paint with minimal prep. He takes real pride in his work.   John was also very tidy, laying down protective sheets and cleaning up thoroughly after the job was done. It’s clear he respects his clients’ homes, which I really appreciated.   On top of that, he’s friendly, approachable, and trustworthy someone you feel comfortable having in your home. His pricing was fair and transparent, with no unexpected costs.   Highly recommended if you're looking for a skilled and reliable plasterer. I’ll definitely be using him again for any future work.

      I'm guessing they're busy. I found out just now that the SNT has tracked down the kids who attacked my dog, had strong words with their parents, and the gang has now broken up. I got a lot of detail, which I won't go into here, but it sounds as if they were also quite compassionate towards some of the kids, some of whom may not have had the easiest of lives.  I know that those kids had nothing to do with the attack of the man in August and that they are also aware of the fireworks problem. Sounds like good community policing.
