Bees are sweet where they belong! But not quite so sweet when they sting…Luckily, there’s a instant remedy. Think of tapping as an invisible first-aid kit that you always carry with you. Not long ago, I was awoken in the middle of the night by a mysterious noise from outside my houseboat. Padding groggily onto the pontoon in my pyjamas to investigate, I banged my calf hard into a mooring post. Weeks later, I still have
