I managed to get a swarm out of an oak tree today with the help of the kind people (and their ladder) who lived opposite. If it stays and turns out to have laying queen I should take it to Thorpe and put it in the empty hive there.
I split a brood box into three chambers today and put a queen cell and a frame of brood in each from the hive at Old Costessy that had double brood box and was the youngest of Old Costessy's 2008 queens.
