Monday 8 February was also another wet day at our Bolehill Cottages near Bakewell (see here). Thought I would go down to Bakewell first thing to go to the market and pick up a few bits for the next couple of days. Unfortunately there were hardly any stalls there so I wasn’t there long. Back to Bolehill where there was one departure and one arrival and one cleaner to keep up with cleaning. Handyman also here and he and Chris carried on with some painting jobs in Honeysuckle and a few odd jobs in other cottages. Cleaner with broken wrist came up for coffee, she has had an operation on her wrist and it will still be a while before she can return to work. Drove her back home before lunch then final checks on cottage before arrival here at 3pm, he has been before and is here for a couple of weeks. The rest of the afternoon went in jobs in cottages and bookings. In the evening I went to Over Haddon for indoor bowls. Tuesday was a complete opposite to Monday being sunny and dry but colder. One arrival and one cleaner here to keep up with cleaning. We went to see our friends in Yorkshire for the day and cottage arrived at 3.30, they have been before. Wednesday was another fine day. No departures or arrivals and Chris carried on with jobs in the cottages while I caught up with some paperwork in the morning. In the afternoon I went as a visitor to Baslow WI at the Baslow Village Hall and had an enjoyable couple of hours. Baslow WI are a very active WI with over sixty members. The speaker was a former vet who changed to a veterinary career later in life and he recounted some of the amusing events that happened to him during his training and career. Afterwards I came home via the Chatsworth Farm Shop. A lovely sunset but not photogenic enough to photograph.
