Default Is there honey still for tea?

Apparently stores are going to run out of British honey by Christmas as
there is such a shortage of honey bees now. Bad news for honey-lovers and
for gardeners. ;-(

I wouldn't believe such stories. They are either put out to boost falling
sales
or as an excuse to increase prices. Shops will lie about there being a
shortage.
I have loads of bees stopping off in the gardens here, more than ever.
Bees are not in decline, it's shops being greedy and idiots believing
everything
they hear or even see on the Internet.
You could always get the New Zealand honey which is £11.50 a jar if you
believe it gives you eternal life, cures every illness and fights global
warming.
