Hmm. Can I join at the show, if I turn up with a bottle of mead & 7 euro ?

No idea. I was kind of wondering, after I posted, if you had to keep bees to be a member. I had a wasp nest out the back garden, I wonder if I could pass that off <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Maybe give them a buzz? (no pun intended <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->)

If anyone's interested, I'll be there at 3pm to see whats on offer and to pick up a few jars. Adeptus, hope to see you there with Big Bertha. It'll be tearful, but be strong....

Is the honey show on again this year?
