Wednesday was another fine day at Bolehill.  I can report that Costa Coffee has opened in Bakewell.  One arrival and one cleaner up.  Later in the morning we took the empty hanging baskets over to the nursery at Buxton and Chris got some supplies from the electrical wholesalers.  Had time for lunch in Buxton before getting back for guests arrival, they have been before.  Andrew was out checking the state of the stone walls, they have suffered more than usual this winter and will need to be done before cows can come over to this side of the road.  Andrew reckons farmers are about a month behind and keeping cows in is costing money in feed but the grass is not growing.  We have only had half an inch of rain this month.  After guests arrival we finalised and paid the quarterly VAT return.  Later on Joanna collected me and we picked up another couple of WI ladies and headed to Monyash for our group WI meeting.  After a  lovely supper our speaker cheered us up with a talk on Morecambe and Wise with some clips from shows.   I won a prize in the photo competition!  Thursday was a quiet day so I caught up on accounts.  In the evening we joined one of the cottages for a drink and a natter.  Friday was a lot cooler although still bright and dry.  Four departures and one arrival and Chris and I turned round the cottage after I went down to Bakewell.  Both of us had jobs to do around the cottages and I now only have a couple of jobs left to finish the ‘spring cleaning’.  Guests arrived at 3.30, they have been before.  Found time for some paperwork before tea after which I took the dogs for a walk as it was a pleasant evening.
