I almost wish I haven't heard of all these sad people spoiling some fun - or what should be just a little fun get-together, and lending support to who-ever organised the show. I still believe nothing like that happens in Aberdeenshire (except if the person C4U mentioned is one of our lot!) and I'm just blind!

Last year our judge (AR) left us helpful notes under the jars.

Somebody gave me a bee-keeping book that was written in 1950 in which the author mentions 'tall and squat honey jars', and that the squat ones were taking over. They were introduced so that the spoon doesn't sink into the honey, but he thought honey looks better in the tall jar. I suppose the jars we now use must be the squat ones - but does anybody have pictures of the tall jars?
