Thanks for the tip - I just spoke to them and unfortunately they only sell 200kg drums which then get used by various companies which we can then buy in the shops but because of health / hygiene regulations they don't do small i.e. 1-5kg quantities  :-\ ...hmmm....so the search continues....

Contact your local beekeeper's club - there are no restrictions in selling honey to the general public, but you would have to go directly to the beekeeper.
