Oh the joys of Torpoint! A Thriving, cosmopolitan metropolis!

I'm unsure whether they're proud to be in Cornwall or look longingly over the river at Devonport and Stonehouse!!!! lol

Buy where else are there THREE FERRIES and a 15 minute wait?

Used to live near Torpoint (in Anthony, opposite Ring of Bells pub) when the ferry cost 5p

And now I live yards away from Plumpton College.

Well fancy that!

There are no real formal beekeeping positions of employment in the UK, and no apiculture courses at UK educational institutions.

The University of Sussex might disagree with you "Laboratory of Apiculture and Social Insects" http://www.sussex.ac.uk/lasi/research/beekeeping

"But where else are there THREE FERRIES and a 15 minute wait?"

Personally preferred the Cremyll ferry - or rather the stinking black mud beside the slipway. Great for bait digging if you can stand the smell and don't mind risking losing the odd welly!

And less risk of contracting fatal infections than if you did it in the mud in Torpoint!

Not forgetting the sub lethal dose of Tritium /Strontium 90 and other radioactive substances tipped into the lower reaches of the Great Grey Green Greasy Tamar River all set about with Social Housing!

Have you seen the kids from stonehouse?

Plumpton College!?

When I say that there are no apiculture courses at UK educational institutions, I am kind of thinking of Universities, and not places like Plumpton College that might specialize in flower arranging and alternative therapies.

And LASI at Sussex University is a research organization.

As a lecturer in an FE institution, I'll have you know that they do not "specialise in flower arranging and alternative therapies" - the evening classes have just about disappeared now - but offer vocational and academic courses at all levels up to first degrees - so there!

Welcome to the Forum Gary. Sorry to hear about your Job. It is a good group of guys here with lots of good information. The first thing I learned when I transitioned to this forum is that the US method of keeping bees is pretty narrow minded.

As a Marine, the more miserable the better! Some of my favorite moments were working the bees in the rain and mud. It really adds to the excitement carrying a full honey super as your feet are sinking.
You will never make most miserable, I have been there and it was closer to the equator.
