Everyone seems to be talking about the blue and green honey being produced by bees in parts of France. Something to do with the little blighters eating residue from Mr. Hollande’s underwear… or was it residue from an M&M factory?

Whatever the reason, why not try to keep it like that instead of the reported anger from the beekeepers, who say the stuff is unsaleable, despite being completely safe. Can the French not see the possible marketing opportunity this presents, if they don’t then it will certainly be taken up by the all powerful ruler of Europe, Money Bags Merkel.

At the moment France is the largest producer of honey in Europe, knocking out over 18,000 tonnes of the stuff every year. Just a few tonnes of blue and green should do it, they could send some to Spain… although they wouldn’t eat it, they could use its adhesive qualities to try and patch up the economy, or maybe a tonne or two to Britain, where they could feed it to the queen to see if it turns her blood blue.

We at the Gazette have even thought of a good name for the new brand, ‘Fifty Shades of Blue’.
