Absolutely brilliant to see so many of you today in Perth. Great to meet some forum folk for the first time. Crabbit Dave, for example, is not crabbit at all as far as I can tell! Mr Plan B bravely came into the lion's den (to coin a phrase) and emerged more or less in one piece.
Peter S admitted that he isn't very experienced yet with Latex which got some excited. Not entirely sure that he knew why he got he response he did ;).
Highlight of the day though was seeing the interactions between key members of the hobby fraternity and the giants of the bee farming world. What on earth was going on here?!! Suitably witty captions will be rewarded in a few days with additional shots in this series .....

After tonight I'm going to go back to calling you crabbitdave ;).
Many thanks for the captions, guys! Not a bad effort. If you are all nice to me I may post another one tomorrow night.

OK folks, see if this gets the creative juices flowing. More captions please!
There are plenty more of these in a folder here to continue for a week or so. Next time I'll be using a better camera phone. The better phone is sitting here beside me but I still need to know how to get the contacts off the old one and which buttons to press on the new. Anyway, back to the suitable words for a picture of a bee farmer exposing himself ..... :eek:

How do I delete my account on SBAi?

As everyone signed up I inserted a Trojan on all their devices so any attempt to unsubscribe is futile - it just keeps resubscribing/reinstalling as necessary no matter how many times you try to get rid of it! Look at Rosie, Prakel and countless others - they tried to go but were outfoxed by SBAi cunning .... MWWAHHH!!!
(trying hard *not* to listen to the football on the radio in the next room ..... )
There must be a fault in Drone Ranger's Trojan - his does seem to let him go as the daylength contracts but he'll be back in spring, sure as anything.

Beekeeping charades was a big hit, although the stewards stepped in when they one of the players pulled the "Instrumental Insemination" card

Brilliant! Thanks folk - one of these two managed to raise a real laugh rather than just a chortle.
Kevin - I'm sworn to secrecy about what *really* goes on in Perth. You really have to experience it for yourself.
Here is today's instalment.

Whilst they gave it their best effort, the French and Saunders tribute act were judged 'somewhat disappointing'

If beekeeping doesn't work out, Wmfd, you could always turn to caption writing. Or beekeeping in summer and caption writing in winter, that'd do it. I like your style. I like it so much I was helpless for a while :).
Last one. My turn: 'Heads, shoulders, knees and boobs, knees and boobs..... '
I'm sure others can do better ............

You're a smart lot out there and have probably already worked this out, but the lady featuring in all the pictures is a local association secretary, one with special skills in the physiotherapy arena. I've benefited myself from her kindness and her skill when I pitched up to give a talk to the locals towards the end of a bout of back pain. She's a lovely lady and the association concerned is lucky to have such an energetic and bubbly person at their centre.
The giant of the bee farming world is a lovely guy too ;).

You have been reading too much Kafka DR. He is more likely to burst open and release a load of small hive beetle into the room!

I was going to post a link to the John Hurt scene from the first Alien movie but someone would likely bring up their Sunday dinner.
