English beekeeper - new to the forum

rhami01:
Hi there - I too am in the UK, (Suffolk) and like you - I lost my bees last winter.
I purchased another colony first week of June and the day I went to collect - got the call to collect a swarm.
Both colonies are content side-by-side
Then earlier last week - I collected another swarm - word is getting around.
That was fun.  They settled outside a marquee during a wedding in full swing.  The manager didn't want me to leave the Nuc until later in the evening, and wanted them gone asap. Needless to say, lots of frustrated bees trying to get in (and out) up to the point when we said - right - got to stop up the gap right now.
But - they got home and are now settled.
Good experience

Rurification:
Welcome, rhami01.   Great people on this forum.
