Beekeeping course on Colonsay
I have a few photos of the intermediate beekeeping course we went to on Colonsay with Andrew Abrahams, in June. Jimbo, Kitta and Grizzly were there too and I know Jimbo took some photos so perhaps he can add some. I'm having problems with the upload, having failed once so not quite sure how these images will show up.The two of Andrew show him in 2 of his 6 or 7 apiaries.
