    hhhmmm

    Do you feel you need to do a course then??? If you have handled bees, and been around hives then you have way more experience then I have and I couldn't wait to get started. Maybe I have jumped in a little too eagerly, but there are so many experienced folk on here that I feel quite confident if...
