    Cumbria Autumn Conference

    The conference was reasonably well attended and although the entry to the honey show was much reduced the exhibits were of high quality. Both speakers Ian Craig and Murray MacGregor were excellent. All in all a good day out even if I do say so myself.

    cleaning up after bees in the conservatory

    I am in trouble with my better half having used the conservatory to extract honey. I cleaned up most things but a few bees were in the supers and in the excitment they have crapped on the vertical blinds. The crap is proving difficult to remove and I fear for my well being if I damage the...

    Scientific evidence for honey-based cures

    My mother was a district nurse and was using honey way back in the 1960's to treat leg ulcers. It seemed to be successful when conventional treatment had failed.

    Win an I Phone?

    I had the blue word problem and strangely it was linked with Babylon and constantly being chucked out of the Beekeepers Arms. Cured the door problem by converting to google chrome, on the advice of polyhive. The only way I could get rid of the Babylon Tool Bar was to surrender my laptop to our...
