Connie eventually managed to see some eggs and larvae lots of capped over brood - very few stores none capped at all. Put an application of hive clean on both hives.
Bees were very active and relaxed Beatrice - a bit more active in Connie but then we decided to open Adele and have a quick look and they were horrid. The smoker had almost gone out which didn't help. By about the fourth frame I had god stung and we put on some hive clean, shut up shop and retired!
Last night and eventually got another gallon of sugar syrup on each hive - hopefully the weather will improve now and we won't need to feed anymore.
