For a while now at our Bolehill cottages near Bakewell (see here) we have had mainly weekly bookings but for a few weeks we will have more short breaks so will be busier.  The cleaners are happy with this as they can earn more money.  Monday was a dull day at although it stayed dry and was mild.  One departure and three arrivals and one cleaner here as one cottage was already prepared.  Usual Monday routines and also did some accounts.  First cottage here at 5pm, they have been before with remaining cottages here just after 7pm.  Tuesday was another dull day with some light showers, could have been worse.  Each time I looked at the forecast it changed.  One departure.  Tuesday handyman here and he and Chris did some pruning jobs around the properties.  In the afternoon I went to Sainsburys in Matlock. Took the dogs out for their evening walk and stayed to watch the sunset, Chris joined me and we went as far as we could on Andrews fields to get the best shots.  At least we saw some warm sunshine on Wednesday morning.  Two departures and one cleaner here with one arrival.  With a couple of empty cottages I took the chance to get some extra jobs done. With bookings, cancellations and enquiries the morning soon went.  It clouded up in the afternoon and the rain arrived about 5pm and our guests just before 6pm.  A lot of emails in the evening but no nice sunset to photograph.
