    Cheeky fecker?

    i didn't say they were forced, you said they were 'claiming' £6 was going to charity, it wouldn't have been a claim if sale was through ebay it would have been inforced, if sale was made outside ebay then he would have been claiming to give to charity

    Newbee - octagonal warre

    just remember bee keeping doesn't have to cost a fortune, i started out with a top bar hive i made myself which cost me nothing and now i have a poly langstroth hive that cost £60 which means i can spend more money on other equipment chris
