Thanks, Gus 😘. I’m alright, just a bit self-pitying. DS’ job is uncertain and Auntie Joan is in hospital. Every one of us has stuff with which to contend and I’ll bee up tomorrow. Soo xx ---

> [@soobee](#): > > DS’ job is uncertain and Auntie Joan is in hospital I am so very sorry to hear both of those things, dear Soo. You are a Powerful Force when it comes to keeping the tides of shite at bay, undeniably, but a Bee is also allowed to feel sorry for itself when assailed by neuralgia. We all feel sorry for you too. Dammit. Candle will be relit for Auntie Joan, you, and the DS. Will be? Has been. They have mainly been going for the umbrella topics of human ingenuity and human kindness. Gxxx ---

Sorry about the neuralgia, Soo: a compleat bee-hitch, that. I went for a not-very-long walk in the sunshine yesterday, for the first time since just after Christmas what with sprains and bruises and gout having afflicted me for the past couple of months, and today my thighs tell me that an hour was too long for a first time. But I was enjoying it so, and there was so much to look at… The wild raspberries in the wood are putting out green shoots and even small tentative leaves, for instance, which was lovely to see, and on the drive there I saw that all the flowering cherries on the green beside the main road are in full blossom, pink and white and splendid. And the forsythia on a bank beside a hilly bit of road is blazing golden yellow, too. The beeches are biding their time, though. ---
