How are you finding interest regarding beginners these days. I don't have all the up to date information but understand Ealing has had very few enquiries regarding this year's beginners course

its building up for this year but much slower than usual. Maybe, wanting to keep bees has passed its sell by date?

There's more information on the internet these days and also brilliant forums like this one, that could be the reason why you are finding things building up slow, i have no mentor or anyone to turn too i just read and read and when the shite hits the fan this forum is priceless with a wealth of knowledge from certain members, however i would not rule a beginners coarse out but i fear i may be telling the tutor he is wrong..
