Lesley Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I loved seeing the bees - except I had to rush off and hack a bit of the honeycomb we took off the hive last autumn Interesting to see what they used to use to extract honey - it's changed very little.

Tiggy Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I thought the episode with the sewing machine was very funny I loved the man who came to demonstrate it. What a character. Victorian clothes suited him somehow. Have Sk+'d it. I'm sure I saw that chap at Ludlow castle and at the Wiggly Wigglers open day. I'd love to keep bees, but I'm a little scared of getting stung, and OH has already said "dont even think about it" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I watched it and thought it was interesting. Did they tell you if the shire horse's hoof was any better after putting that paste onto it? or will that be next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I missed it again Will watch it on iplayer. Won't even mention getting bees to OH, he is scared witless of all winged things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I'm enjoying it - very informative! (I didn't know where rennet came from ) And to think that someone probably discovered cheese after watching a calf vomit is extra I had to laugh at the sewing machine one - considering her 'skill' on the machine, I find it very hard to believe that she then produced that intricate outfit!! Still good watching though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 ... And to think that someone probably discovered cheese after watching a calf vomit is extra maybe they picked up the lumps and tasted them and thought, mmmmmmm, be nice on a sandwich that!
