A sweet story!

Honey Honey!

On Sunday mornings, we go for a coffee in Ranelagh and on our way to the coffee shop we pick litter (Dublin City Council will supply you with litter pickers and bags, if you drop them a line on their customer service email). 


This morning was a lovely mild day and we walked up Chelmsford on opposite sides of the road as we picked. Ciaran had the dog on his side. 

Lots of people say "Thank you" as they pass by but this morning I had the loveliest encounter with a man who asked were we part of a group who does the litter picking. I explained how we do it on our way for coffee on a Sunday morning. He said thanks but then told me to hold on a minute that he was a bee-keeper and he was going to give me two jars of honey!!

Well I was so happy! What a lovely thing to do. He went in to his house not far from where we were talking and then came back with this gorgeous Dublin Mountain Honey.

Here's pics of the honey which is available in The Village Butcher in Ranelagh. 


Certainly a sweet ending to our Sunday litter pick!
