They had better hope that it's chucking it down with rain ....or they may have a few extra uninvited visitors !
Their equipment and hives all look brand new on the website, is it their first time extracting? Could get interesting very quick
“Children are coming free, two children accompanied by 1 adult, adult tickets must be booked.” will be a few traumatised kids after this

Many years ago I popped in to a friend for a cuppa. He was in mid extracting. While there I got a call from swarm collection manager. Could I collect a local swarm? The address was my friend's. I went outside, and discovered he had not covered the extracted supers very well. That was the "swarm"

The 230 to 330 slot will be the deciding factor if there's an event next year
