A friend tells me that she heard on the Today programme that they are
now producing manuka honey on the Isle of Wight.
Can anyone (Mike?) expand on this?

Pam in Bristol


Pam, is that Manuka or Mabuka?

I will see what I can find out


OK found it's Manuka.

Searching


Pam I have been onto our local newspaper, the Isle of Wight County Press
http://www.iwcp.co.uk/ and they are going to look into it and report back.
No doubt they are going to contact the local Bee Keeping Association.

Failing that, if we don't get any response before next Tuesday, I have an
interview on Isle of Wight Radio about how we have saved Shanklin Theatre
http://www.shanklintheatre.com/default.aspx from possible demolition. I
will 'try' to get something in there.

Must go, I have arranged a live question on Vectis Radio in 3 minutes. Tune
in.

Mike
