@Robwils94254586 Oooh nice 👌

Still nice cells being drawn and well loaded with royal Jelly

@GwenynGruffydd @CarharttEurope Only you Gruff !!🤣🤣

Who else likes to have a sneaky taste of honey when you’re out on the bees!? This years spring honey tastes amazing!! Don’t get it on your shirt though!! 😂 #carhartt #carharttworkwear #carhartteurope @CarharttEurope

@Robwils94254586 Very nice work well done 👍

I like young mated queens to be fully established in the mating nucleus before, this one is good enough to go to her forever home 😉🐝🐝

@Robwils94254586 @GwenynGruffydd Lord Gruff perhaps 🤔

@GwenynGruffydd It will be Sir Gruff in no time 😉

💂 🍯🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿Carmarthenshire Day in London 💂🍯🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 On our way back home from London! Gwenyn Gruffydd was invited by Ann Davies, our local MP to a Celebration event held in the Jubilee room, Houses of Parliament, Westminster this morning. Ann Davies MP invited us along with other food producers from Carmarthenshire to showcase Carmarthenshire produce at the event which was attended by Members of Parliament from Wales, Welsh Members of the House of Lords, GI DEFRA staff, together with a busload of members of the Farmers’ Union Wales, Carmarthen. It’s been a privilege to have been invited to participate in this event to fly the flag for not only Carmarthenshire honey but Welsh honey too at Westminster. It’s been a fantastic new experience and thank you Ann Davies MP for the opportunity 🍯

@Robwils94254586 Looking good Rob 👍😉

First batch of queen cells going into the incubator, nice cells for a first graft 😊

@Robwils94254586 Looking good Rob 😉👍

Feb feed checks underway, covers off today as it’s a bit milder and I can be sure of what stores they have available… even the mini nucs coming through nicely so far!

@SheffieldHoney Get well soon old boy 😉

@elthambees It’s just snow, flu has wiped me out so let it snow 😁

Fake snow ramping accounts this last week sums up this platform ☹️ all about followers and revenue

@SheffieldHoney @beesinbrittany Let’s wait and see next year Jez 😉

Highly recommended bit of kit by @beesinbrittany best anti swarm purchase ever! so good it never got used 😂😂😂

@Robwils94254586 Good to see new blood Rob working 😉👍

After trying two village markets in the last couple of weeks we were at Cardigan market today and had a great day, my nephew Luke was head of sales and marketing 😊

@Robwils94254586 Yup more hard work Rob 🤣

Stack of new hive stands, new brood chambers, floors and supers, can only mean one thing!!😉

@SheffieldHoney No

@elthambees You ever used Quickbooks?

Does everyone use online accounting services now?

@SheffieldHoney Fingers crossed Jez

Bit early for this stuff, sheep joy, sorted but unclear if queen damaged - I’d post more pics but X won’t allow me too

@Robwils94254586 @GwenynGruffydd Rob the lids from Gruff are great value.your idea looks interesting 🤔

Fed up of leaking roofs, I’m trying out some deep metal roofs from ⁦@GwenynGruffydd⁩ with my home made insulated cover boards, note 40mm pipe insert to stop bees eating the insulation…no more damp boxes 🤞

@SheffieldHoney Looking good Jez 😉👍

Out clearing cut comb boxes (blue ones) first, site visited today was bursting with honey and bees 👍 #BeeFarmer

@bakeliteguy Unbelievable 🤣

@SheffieldHoney Jez all strapped down ?

Back from removing honey supers, done because strong winds are due and some hives with 5-6 supers on are at risk 😕 #BeeFarmer

@LoveBritishFood @GwenynGruffydd Thanks everyone

Congratulations to all the Bee Farmers who got stars at the Great Taste Awards, with two Bee Farmers' Assocation members getting three stars for their honey... Well done to @elthambees and @GwenynGruffydd. Fantastic work - Love British Honey!🇬🇧

@bakeliteguy How civilised 🐝
