Noble friends,

The archaeological community in Scotland is all abuzz (so to speak) 
about the discovery of a purpose-built beehive within a pillar at 
Rosslyn Chapel. Very strange, since the hive could not be accessed for 
collecting honey. Here's the story: 
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/scotland/8594724.stm .

I wish I could tell you all more about this, since I was previously in 
the service of Sir Oliver Sinclair of Roslyn. That was over 500 years 
ago, and memories do get foggy with age.

Kind regards,


Mungo Napier, Former Captain of Archers and Equerry  to Sir Oliver Sinclair.
