Hello All
 
Sadly, we have lost another venerable beekeeper. I enjoyed as did all of my
colleagues, the great posts submitted by the Old Drone. I often pictured
Andy as a wise old gentleman with many many answers to beekeeping, sitting
like the Oracle of ancient times, dispensing his knowledge to travellers who
happened to come along. I was privileged to be one of those travellers.
Aaron Morris wrote to me recently, 'it is nice to meet the faces behind the
posts'. Sadly, this option is no longer available to those like myself who
never met Andy. We will nonetheless carry a lovely mental picture of Andy
based on what he wrote.
 
No more will we see his signature 'Ttul The Old Drone'. Thank you good
friend for sharing so much with us.
 
Sincerely
