Whoa, back up the bus on this one. I wasn't 'in the dark' on this
matter, quite the reverse. I knew precisely what I was doing, and far
from being 'repentant', you can be sure if I have to, I'll do it
again. My aim is to keep my bees alive, not to be so enamoured with
labels that I would risk the life of a hive to conform to others
standards.
The Indians have a very good saying, " Don't criticise a man till
you've walked a mile in his moccasins" might be worth thinking
about!!
