Friday was a bit wetter than the previous days.  During the day we had a number of deliveries including the first lot of curtains, a microwave oven, and towel rails.  Sounds more like the Generation Game conveyor belt.  Spent some time on housework as had a friend arrive to stay the night. The dogs had a temporary new best friend as she bought them some dog biscuits so they kept following her around just in case she had some more!  After our guests arrived at 3pm I took her down to Bakewell as I needed to get provisions for the weekend.  In the evening we went to the Bulls Head in Ashford in the Water for a nice meal.  Saturday was a bright and breezy day and a number of things I had freecycled over the last few weeks were collected so Chris has an empty garage.  Friend left after lunch and as it was dry Chris wanted to cut the lino for a cottage.  The only problem was the wind had picked up and as we had to cut it outside the lino was difficult to hold down.  I must have looked very elegant sprawled out on the lino to stop it flapping about!  Have started to notice that the daylight is lasting longer at our peak district cottages which is a nice sign although winter is not over yet and you never know, there may be a sting in the tail.
