Looks lovely. Don't you have to have 2 sinks or are they out of view?
 
Was this a planned visit or just turned up out of the blue?
Had you/did you register as a food producer etc etc

well done on the 5 stars anyhow 👍

I have 1 1/2 sink which he said was fine. The rooms only a box built in the corner of a barn 2.2x3m!

It was a planned visit. They were supposed to visit the day of lockdown so that had to be postponed!

If you are a residential address the EHO has to give you 24 hours notice of a visit. If commercial premises then it can be unannounced.

Absolutely lovely. I am working on it, but he does not know yet!
 
Alas I have no room. I have a shed at the apiary, a store room off the garage and a shed at the bottom of the garden.
There is kit dotted about the house.
I despair!
 
I do all our extracting and bottling in the kitchen. The inspector seemed to think this was ok because he gave us a five. (We have a second sink in the utility room next door). Lucky old you, Erichalfbee, we have no garage, no store room and no shed!
