Roger Morgan-Grenville

After a chance meeting in the pub, Roger Morgan-Grenville and his friend Duncan decide to take up beekeeping. Their enthusiasm matched only by their ignorance, they are pitched into an arcane world of unexpected challenges and setbacks, ending two years later with more honey than anyone knows what to do with.
An uplifting and multilayered story of bee keeping, friendship, the tricky navigation into meaningful middle age and a clarion call for never taking ‘no’ for an answer. Join Roger tonight for a highly entertaining and informative romp through his adventures.
A light-hearted account of midlife, a yearning for adventure, the plight of bees, the quest for “liquid gold” and, above all, friendship.
