Living in an elevated position has its advantages.  On Bonfire night I can see fireworks for miles around from our peak district cottages.  I watched the display at Stanton in Peak and could even make out their bonfire.  We might go to Over Haddon on Saturday night for theirs and if not find a spot to watch the one at Chatsworth House which is always good.  Friday was a hectic day and the weather followed the pattern established this week with a fine morning but rain by mid afternoon. Three cottages out and four back in with two cleaners up.  One cottage late in departing but no problems experienced with cleaning.  Two electricians here today as well (and the handyman too!) and they finished the wiring.  They had to ‘connect’ the new rooms to the house which meant we were without power until mid afternoon as they had to install a new fuse board.  They also had to shut down the whole site for about half an hour which hampered the hoovering in the cottages but as everyone else was already out or gone it did not cause much inconvenience.  We had coffee in one of the cottages as I had no where to boil a kettle in the house.  The poor dogs were a bit traumatised as power cuts always seem to unsettle them.  Blue took to staying in the garage and Smudge sat on cottage doorsteps looking very forlorn in the wet. Went down to Bakewell late morning to get provisions for the weekend and decided it was one of those days as two cottages arrived (independently) whilst having lunch at 2pm.  Unfortunately I had not finished my chores but they were back and in for 3pm.  One cottage arrived at 6pm and the final one at 8.30 pm.
