Handy for the Stranraer folk and only a couple of miles from the airport

This year's event is on 8th-9th March.

Some cracking speakers there. Pity that guy who is busy converting the greater Belfast area to native stock with the queen rearing programme is up against the might of Pam Hunter and someone showing frame and equipment assembly. Maybe they'll record the event for all to see on the internet.

Looking forward to it. Must try and get the presentation ready in good time which would break the habit of a lifetime.
There are usually a few come over from Scotland.

I'm biased, but say hello to Ivor too, he's helped me a lot in my own beekeeping.

[GRIZZLY]

Hope to see you there Jon.

The venue is only about a half hour drive from the ferry so a handy enough run from Stranraer.
Thorne have a room full of stuff there every year if you need to pick up any extra bits and pieces.
The lectures run in two rooms simultaneously.
It's pretty well attended. I don't know the exact numbers but would guess between 300-400 most years.
