Sunday 7th June was another fine day at our Bolehill Cottages near Bakewell (see here) and with less of a breeze it felt warmer.  After getting the paper we went to see our cleaner who has broken her wrist.  Due to complications with it she is still not back at work but she needed a hand with some diy jobs.  Back home for lunch and Chris helped move some of Andrew’s cows along the road to some fields where they could munch around the edges after silaging.  After lunch we went to Birchover for their open gardens as we have never done them.  It’s always interesting visiting gardens and on afternoons like this we always find parts of villages that we never knew existed.  We never knew Birchover had a church but now we do!  We also found a spot to look over towards Bolehill!  We stopped for tea and cake at one of the farmhouses on the way out of the village at the end of the afternoon. Back home they had finished cutting in the fields behind us and we’re already rowing and collecting in fields cut on Saturday. At least the weather had held.  Monday stayed fine with a couple of light showers in the afternoon.  No departures but two arrivals and one cleaner here.  Down to Bakewell first thing to go round the market.  When I got back they were rowing and collecting in the fields behind us.  Final checks completed by lunchtime and the rest of the day went in odd jobs.  Silaging continued all day as they also had some fields on their side of so the road to do and silaging finally finished at 7.30.  First guest here at 3.00pm and final guest here at 10.30pm.
