We’re very lucky to live in the Lincolnshire Wolds and are surrounded by rolling hills and an abundance of nature. We have dogs, chickens and grow lots of flowers, vegetables and herbs. It seemed only natural the next step into my countryside journey was to become a beekeeper.
I’m Nick Bunker, the hands-on beekeeper and I grew up in the countryside becoming an apprentice gamekeeper at the age of 14. Although I am no longer a Gamekeeper I still love the countryside and find peace within the rolling countryside of the Lincolnshire Wolds.

My wife, Kirsty, works part time as a qualified Aromatherapist starting her own business, Sage and Bellflower, in 2022 using the beeswax to create more aromatic and plant powered products to help heal and bring a little bit of happiness to people thanks to our bees.

We are entering our third year of beekeeping so are very new to it all. We have 3 Apiaries all within 3 miles of our house. Being an Ex-Gamekeeper I do have a few contacts who allow us to use their farms to house our Apiaries! Let’s be honest as I sit here and write I estimate I have around 20 hives with bees but who knows? It’s January as I write, and we all know that it is difficult to know exactly how many hives you have until spring. Well, I do anyway!

I will mention in another blog how our first and second years went and some of the points I have learnt throughout my short beekeeping journey. But first I’d like to mention our aim. I’m lucky in the job I currently work that I will retire at a relatively young age and hope between our bees, Kirsty’s business and dogs we will have enough to top up my pension.
Although this will be “work” it will be very much “work” in inverted commas as this is the life I love. This will be in five years from now by February 2029 I hope to have somewhere around 100 hives and enough equipment to be able to deal with the honey.
It’s a pleasure to write for you all for the first time and I hope you will follow me on my journey to 100 hives and semi-retirement!













I've been using V3 Game for a little while, and the v3 game login process has been simple and consistent.
I was looking for troubleshooting tips related to Amar Club Game Login in case someone forgets their password or has trouble signing in. It would be great to see more details on that topic.
Ich sehe die Debatte um Identitätsprüfungen und Krypto Wallets eher pragmatisch. Ein Verzicht auf Dokumentenuploads spart Zeit, aber die versprochene Anonymität ist technisch oft relativ. Betreiber fordern bei Unregelmäßigkeiten oder hohen Transaktionsvolumina ohnehin nachträglich Nachweise an. Für eine reine Analyse der regulatorischen Rahmenbedingungen nutze ich https://www.leadership.ng/gambling/de/crypto-casinos-ohne-verifizierung Crypto Casinos ohne KYC Tabellen, obwohl das Portal sehr überladen wirkt. Man sollte die Nodes und AML Ausnahmen genau prüfen und die Risiken dezentraler Systeme nicht unterschätzen. Man sollte stets rational agieren und vorsichtig bleiben.
Дивлюся на ці переліки пропозицій від ліцензіатів і бачу лише маркетингову стратегію. Більшість обіцянок про вивід коштів зазвичай супроводжується складними вейджерами. Нещодавно вивчав список де зібраний бонус казино https://cardmates.ua/bonuses щоб зрозуміти технічні умови активації. На перший погляд пропозиції структуровані але кожна категорія потребує детального розрахунку ймовірності відіграшу. Оператори часто змінюють правила тому стабільність тут сумнівна. Це просто інструмент для залучення нових гравців. Раджу зберігати критичне мислення та оцінювати ризики перед прийняттям будь-яких рішень. Орієнтуйтеся на факти та власні фінансові можливості.
The technical side of UKGC compliance is becoming a headache, especially with the recent shifts in RTP monitoring and AML triggers. If you're digging into the nitty-gritty of licensing or trying to cross-reference software audits from different jurisdictions, most "review" sites are useless marketing fluff. I usually end up checking Cardmates because they actually list the underlying technical specs and provide a somewhat decent breakdown of the T&Cs for bonus wagering. It’s not perfect—the interface is a bit cluttered for my taste—but at least they provide the raw data on payout speeds and RNG certifications without the usual sales pitch.
