Autumn is on the way

IMG_6855Monday was again the worst day of the week weather wise at our Bolehill cottages near Bakewell (see here).  One departure and two arrivals and one cleaner here.  Rain on and off during the morning but the sun came out during the afternoon.  Usual Monday routines and paperwork during the day.  First cottage here at 3.30, they have been before and brought with them some of their award winning delicious Suffolk honey.  Second cottage arrived at 5.30, they are here for nearly two weeks.  After dinner Chris went to the first session of the Bakewell Photographic Society for this season.  Won’t be long before indoor bowls starts.  Tuesday was a much more pleasant day with long spells of sunshine.  No departures but one arrival with cottage already IMG_6876prepared.  Household jobs in the morning and in the afternoon I went to Buxton to do some shopping including a trip to Morrisons.  Cottage arrived while I was out but Chris saw them in and I caught up with them on my return, they have been before. Wednesday was another fine and mainly sunny day.  We thought about going to Chatsworth to see the Beyond Limits exhibition but decided to wait another couple of weeks hopefully to take advantage of autumn colours.  So it was a quiet day with Chris doing jobs around the house and I concentrated on getting the information together for all our tax returns and dealing with our adverts for the 2016 Visit Peak District brochure.  Mid afternoon our friends from Ashford popped in for a cup of tea.  Wednesday was the autumn equinox and autumn colours are starting to appear in the trees.
