Dear all,

Please be aware we have a swarm of bees above the door to the screens in Front Court.

They seem to have settled for the moment and we are currently trying to get someone out to collect them.

In the meantime please be aware of them and use alternative routes if possible to your destinations in college.

Regards,

Mark
Head Porter

At 15.20:
Dear all,

We have managed to remove around 90% of the bees and those that are left should disperse within a day. It should be safe to walk through the screens now but as a precaution just be aware there are still some around.

Just to let you know, the bees have been taken to Emanuel college where thy have hives and we have been promised some honey soon!!

Regards,

Mark
Head Porter

There are worse things to get in return for your excess bees than honey.

"Pardon me, but do you have any spare bees? We're running low..."

OH HELLO, I wondered if you were a Cantabrigian. Fistbump of mutual solidarity and mental distress? I graduated in 2010, but the trauma LINGERS.

That sounds so much like something that would happen here. (Somerville, MA, U.S. - just a few miles over from the other Cambridge.)

So they have been taken to Emmanuel for a night in the cells.
It's not really one of those 'Dog bites man' headlines, as if anyone *from* Emmanuel had ever gone the other way.

This is actually amazing. I need it to be in a book about harried students who are just trying to get to their exams, okay?! but EVIL BEES INTERRUPT. I will read that book over and over and over.
