Things are bad

[philinacoma]

And so the circle of life turns once more in the queendoms of A and B.

May we all give thanks to the wise one who is the giver of life! We must also offer our strength to the great queen so she may not lose heart as that is the road to despair and ultimately the demise of two noble queendoms.

Long live the queens!

There is a John Covey up in Jimboomba (near Beudesert, QLD) who is a queen breeder. He will mail you up a queen if you are interested. he should be in the phone book.
