Do bees have knees? Does it matter? This phrase on solvemedia tempted me to Google and I quickly realised that the phrase ' bees knees' was an idiom and referred to something / someone who was very good or excellent. The history for this phrase seems unclear - was it because bees work hard or is it because they carry pollen on their knees or is it just a weird way of pronouncing 'business'? Anyway this captcha was certainly bees knees. Hope this post is bees knees too!!

I must admit I’ve never really looked up where the bees knees phrase comes from, it’s used an awful lot here in the UK, mainly to describe someone who thinks they are better than other “he thinks he’s the bees knees” 🤣
