Dear Bee-L'ers Kerry Clarke mentioned that the cover of Bee World is the same as the international queen marking code - not quite true in the last few years I've had to go away from this (white is such a difficult colour for a cover!) BUT the 1995 volume cover DOES match - its blue. I try to stick to the code but don't rely on it - check the BUZZ inside in issue 1 - 1994 cover was purple, I hope no one painted their queens this colour! ************************************************************** * Dr Pamela Munn * * Editor of Bee World, Associate Editor of J.
