Hiya!

A shout out to all my Facebook family, friends, contacts and businesses I support.

Please can you like and share my new business page for the Bee Cabin??

The previous page Colin and Fiona had was lost to the mysteries surrounding the FB black hole and therefore I lost the audience…

I need to build up the reach from scratch and appreciate all your support!

Thank you! 😊

The bakes from Courie Courie and Ali Baba’s sound amazing! 😋

Sooooo the big reveal!

Happy to announce I’m the new owner of Bee Cabin beekeeping supplies and services in Aberdeenshire!

Colin and Fiona have done an amazing job building this business so even though I do have big feet I also have very big shoes to fill!

More updates coming soon, small touch of rebranding, relocation and website details to follow.

Sad to say the market day is cancelled this week but it was just too slippery on the ice rink outside Platform 22.

However I did go a little crazy making some stock so I’ll put some pictures up and add the stock to the website too.

What a day! I am afraid that after David's gallant efforts to clear the forecourt of the thick and incredibly slippery ice today it made no difference what so ever. Then to add insult to injury he slipped and fell, thankfully he's not broken anything.

We have gone round and round trying to work out our options, but sadly with sub-zero temperatures which are unlikely to change in the immediate future, as well as our concerns for your safety & our stallholders too we are cancelling Wednesday's (14th) market.

I am so very sorry for the inconvenience and we hate letting you and our community down.
We are hoping that we can have reschedule the stalls to next week on the 21st for our last market of the year.

Please keep safe and take care.
