Have looked in at Airtable, and set up an account. Will try to have a proper look at it later.

I have found the app to be very useful for several years. No faffing around with sheets of paper like some Victorian clergyman. Means I can instantly access all my hive records, including photographs, wherever and whenever I want, and they are all backed up online.

Thanks Simon, and well done in getting though to Matt. I am tempted to think that he has got bored with it and is looking for more exciting things to do. The fact that the website says that Beetight Pro is now free would suggest that as well. Like you, I am downloading my records from the web...

Box, yesterday. Bees all over the box bushes

Interesting point. I just checked with a micrometer and theirs is showing to be ~.95mm thick whereas the other stuff I have been using (STB?) comes in at ~1.1mm. How much difference that makes in practice I should be able to tell shortly as I have a couple of of UFEs awaiting their mesh. I paid...

I turned up on Saturday and while dissapointed at the lower number of exhibitors, was able to purchase what I had ordered, what I needed and some things that I wanted (but technically do not need). Seeing the long, long queues at the Bee Equipment stand I did not even bother to look at any of...
