Andy, thanks for your information. Yes, here in Australia the toilets flush the opposite way to the northern hemisphere and our light switches go down for on and up for off. Anyway, back to the subject. We had Cyprian bees imported into Australia in the early 1950's and these were aggressive compared to the bees in Australia at that time, so they were not proceeded with. With all those imports in the early days, I wonder what happened to all those bees. Yes, Frank Benton was the man of the mailing cage fame. Not a bad winter's day here today. At home, a minimum of 3 degrees centigrade and a maximum of 25 degrees centigrade. Trevor Weatherhead AUSTRALIA
