Looking forward to seeing some of you in Perth tomorrow. A first for this one is the prior printing of the papers on the SBA web site, including all the reports from the various office bearers. Maybe it will give you a chance to think about questions for them. Bottom of the page here:

G.
I shall have to have words, our county association has theirs tomorrow and, being somewhat closer, I've opted to attend that one.
Oooh, I like the new look of the SBA website. You're going to tell me it's been like that for ages now aren't you?
I'm not going to be able to make it this time. The other half is working in London and won't get back until tomorrow afternoon:(
Never mind, I would probably be better getting my head in the books anyway.
Has anyone been in the members only part of the sba website? I havent got round to looking yet.
Yes - I don't know why there is a members-only page because, as far as I can see, you can access all that information from the About page.Quote:

Yes bit strange as the SBA is a registered charity based on the promotion and improvement of beekeeping through education.Quote:

Yes it contains only information that is of interest to members. If you're really curious, then we're always happy to welcome new members!! The SBA is a charity but also a member organisation, so it is a reasonable principle that some of its web pages are restricted to members only.
I was a member for many years but am saving the £25 now :)Quote:

Bugger, I knew someone was going to say that. I know my BBKA details because they started to insist on it so I had to dig out a big pile of stuff to find it.
Was to my chagrin that I applied to the centenary as a member of the BBKA rather than an SBA member
So all I need to do now is find my membership card? Oh dear .....Quote:

I used the bibba number, same discount applies.
... and 'retrieve password information is currently unavailable' ...Quote:

Anybody know when the centenary convention finishes? The approximate time I mean. I need to book a train home afterwards and dont want to be hanging around or miss anything.

I believe the last lecture is due to finish about 17:15 on the sunday but I can't for the life of me find the programme I had before that laid it all out. I know I ended up booking the 10pm flight back because the earlier one meant missing it.
