@trihyc2 @ElmTreeBees Agree, looks like teasel to me. Great for the birds, self seeds and spreads really well.

How is super Market honey so cheap? Well it's not just honey... https://t.co/ajKh7CXcvL

[BlackDogHoneyBees @BlackDogHoney]

Have you ever compared @honey from a #beekeeper, to cheap honey from a supermarket, or wondered what you're getting for your money? 🐝

This is a sample from Tesco, against course filtered raw honey, straight from a beehive 🐝

Which "honey" would you prefer?

The good times...

Nice to see the catkins out, a sure sign spring is coming. A day of good weather for cleansing flights is overdue

@SheffieldHoney @debates1989 It'll be hard going if the cost of hives etc rises significantly as well. I'm sure I'm looking at it with Rose tinted glasses but could be a gap in the market 👀 might give queen rearing a go this year 😁

[Andrew Abraham @AndrewAbraham7]

@SheffieldHoney @debates1989 A bit worrying, might be time to start making more of my own equipment.

[Andrew Abraham @AndrewAbraham7]

@SheffieldHoney @debates1989 Cheers. Do you think it could be good for UK beefarmers to start producing queen's and nucs of there's going to be a lack of imports?

[Andrew Abraham @AndrewAbraham7]

@debates1989 @SheffieldHoney I'm not really in the industry (hobby) but how will it affect uk beekeeping? I heard bee imports are banned but not sure that's true?

Can anyone recommend a tour company for a field trip to Iceland?

[Andrew Abraham @AndrewAbraham7]

@SheffieldHoney Mine were brining in hoards of Heather pollen yesterday in North Staffs... Permanent apiary site so no transporting but I'm hoping they'll bring a little more in yet.

@mrsherlockgeog @LozzaDay03 @GeographyCarrie No problem. Let me know if it works, you should have received an e-mail

[Andrew Abraham @AndrewAbraham7]

@LozzaDay03 @GeographyCarrie @mrsherlockgeog I've set up a drop box, took a while so I've only added AS stuff. Could you message me your e-mail to send you the dropbox link? I think that's the only way to do it...
