Obviously you don't understand the difference between advertising and helping. We have to register and log on so offenders can be expunged easily and we have moderators and a reporting system for removing offending posts. Works on all the other forums I use... R2 (did Latin at School but...

There's rules and there's rules - we obviously don't want Mr Payne to start a thread on here saying "Paynes are the best" but there can be nothing wrong with a response to a question "where can I get...?" with the answer being a company name or a link to said company. It's not advertising, it's...

Paynes!

I'll be wearing a khaki 'Keep Calm and Carry On Beekeeping" T-Shirt - spot me if you can... (a bit like finding the Queen!) R2

Just bought a new Paynes poly hive (floor, 9" brood box, 2 x supers and a roof) in a recent auction. I know to paint it with Sandtex Smooth and a friendly fellow bidder suggested using a wooden crown board under the roof to stop it getting stuck down. Any other tips'n'tricks before I fill it...

I went. Got a new Paynes poly hive 1/2 price - auction was a bit small but plenty of potential - lots of beginners and villagers - parking was absolutely fine, no 4x4 required - would defo go again next year! R2

Seems my innocuous post was completly deleted - ho hum. :banghead: R2

Well, finally had a gap in the clouds to look at my bees - topped up the 1:1 syrup on my 2 week old shook swarm - a quick look inside saw brood in all stages so that's ok then. Next took a look at two brood-and-a-half colonies. The first one had lots of bees and NO stores. Oops - on with...
