Forget flying backways, I'll be mighty impressed if you are claiming an ability to fly forways?

I'm assuming some (polite term for - quite a lot) vodka and redbulls might have been consumed prior to that recollection!



Martin, any progress on CCD yet? Not that I'm suggesting it's your responsibility, just haven't read or heard much lately.

Mart.

Thankfully, we don't have CCD in the UK (yet), perhaps coincidentally, neither do we have GMOs (yet)-  research at Penn State seems to confirm it's several factors working together - in my view, a cocktail of "icides" has got to be way up there at the top of the list of suspects. Just heard Bayer has withdrawn neonicotinoids for use on Almond trees.......... suspect they know something we yet don't (they've known for over 10 years how damn dangerous they are for bees, so suspect they may be affecting something further up the food chain! )
