Monday started a bit damp and drizzly at our peak district cottages but it soon cheered up.  Three cottages out and three back in and two cleaners up.  A couple of minor repair jobs but the morning soon went.  The three cottages all arrived between 3 and 4pm.  After dinner we went to Over Haddon Village Hall where a meeting took place about closure of the public toilets (in the car park) in the village over winter.  A representative from the council was there to discuss the options and I’m sure you’ll here more about this.  Tuesday was another fine day but I spent most of it engrossed in WI work.  There were a lot of balloons around today, two first thing when I took the dogs out, one when I went down to Bakewell and one later in the afternoon. I thought this one was going to fly right overhead but it just seemed to go up then down again. Had a couple of visitors call in to enquire about staying and a took couple of bookings too.  Chris had taken Blue to Buxton so I took Smudge down to Bakewell with me when I went down to get some provisions for the next few days. Here are some photos of the balloons.
