Hi Digger, I asked about keeping bees on our lotties. It isn't against the rules, but someone who'd kept their's on an allotment for years unexpectantly had a viscious strain. Although they're not banned, they are now actively discouraged. I don't feel that I can keep them in my garden and I can't keep them on my lottie. I was about to ask my brother, who has some land five miles from me, but I know I'm about to seriously fall out with him.
Um, I kept bees about 30 years ago, and I'm quite happy to go out without the full gear. I was in the middle of a swarm three years ago with no protective clothes available. The swarm was in my garden, the only people who were stung were the next door neighbours who were trying to swat them.
