Friday 10 October

Another good day forecast although a bit breezier. Three cottages out with one cottage and both B&B back in. Two cleaners up today. Did some extra washing with the warm and dry weather but ended up having to wash one set again when the wind blew the airer over and the washing ended up in the pond! No problems encountered with cleaning although one departing guest mentioned cow 53 always seemed to be in the way so she has been reported. After lunch went down to Bakewell which I though was quite busy. Normally I take one of the dogs but today both jumped in the car so I ended up walking around Bakewell with both of them. Cottage guests arrived about 2pm just before I went to Bakewell so I let them in as it meant I did not have to worry about them arriving when I was down town. The first B&B guests arrived about 4.30pm, they have been here before and they were joined by friends in the other room about an hour later. After dinner Chris went to Over Haddon to fix a computer and I did various bits and pieces in the office, including most of Wednesdays blog and ordered my spring bulbs, until he returned.
