Just a bit of fun. Work out what these objects are used for, if you get it right it's then your go...
The 20p is just there to give it some scale but the other three bits are used together.

The grid thing is a cage for the queen bee, so she can have a coloured bead attached to her for easy identification.0
-
Yes.
The set is for marking queen bees. There are coloured dots, glue, and a queen marking cage under which she is held still on the comb and the bee-keeper (me) can apply the dot.
Queens can last upto 5 years generally, so there is a marking code 0-5 blue, 1-6 white, 2-7 yellow, 3-8 red, and 4-9 green. Marked correctly we can tell the year she was born and it makes it a bit easier to see her in the hive (just).
Over to you for the next piccy.

Considering as how I can't see the picture perhaps my random guesses aren't so stupid :shock:

I don't think I have ever won anything before, apart from €38 million in the Belgium lottery that I never entered, but somehow my cheque never actually arrives.0

I was just typing up a 'close enough' to Jordan_217 when the correct answer came through. An honorable second to him.
