it did. I like Rhod Gilbert.

 

[Dadnlad]

No open to anybody

So any old riff raff allowed then - that'll suit me

I can't find a list of traders, any ideas who'll be there ?

Gonna make a long weekend of it and visit some of my outlaws too - see you on the door

 

[VEG]

Th0rnes, maizem00re, and a few others as well

 

[mbc]

There's normally a good selection of traders there, I take advantage of maisemores wax exchange, and the other usual suspects wil also be there including Wynne Jones with some good bargains.

 

[bee crazy]

I'm thinking of going how much is it to get in?

 

[VEG]

£8 on the door

That's a great idea - I believe there is a café/coffee shop on site... how about 11:00am? That will be after the first talk and gives 45mins before the second talk, does that sound right?
How will we recognise each other - it'll be like a real life game of "where's wally" lol

 

[notmilk]

This may be a silly question, but will there actually be any bees at this convention? It would be great if I could introduce my 7 year old daughter to a working beehive

 

[Swarm]

No there won't be any bees there.

Sounds good to me I'm the one with a beard

 

[notmilk]

Me too! I am growing a beard in readiness for becoming a beekeeper

 

[Easy Beesy]

I hope one's not compulsory!

If some early arrival just writes on a piece of paper BeekeepingForum UK and leaves it on a table the we can all easily spot it and drop in / out as we do here.

Is there a programme for the day - I don't seem to be able to fine one.
I have found this: http://www.*************/files/library/wbka_master_1359722886.pdf
But there are no times.

Edit: that link should of course be the BBKA site.
