August went by in a flash with many walkers visiting our area and the occasional angler. There were many good days on the lake in terms of soaking up the scenery and enjoying the hazy days of summer but very little fishing activity- you just can’t have it every way! The good news is that our new residents that is to say our hive of bees have produced some wonderful honey. I am limiting myself to 1 teaspoon per morning on my porridge and you have to believe me that the taste is amazing. It is a beautiful clear golden colour, quite runny but the most delicate of flavours. I am hoping that it will propel me up Kilimanjaro in October
