Friday was actually a quiet day with a number of guests having already arrived for Easter on Thursday.  One cottage out and one cleaner up to keep up with cleaning.  A much cooler and duller day but the thaw continued.  Spent a lot of the day on accounts finalising last quarters accounts.  Also spent a little time outside brushing any remaining snow of shrubs and helping Chris stake back up some of the fallen climbers.  Saturday saw one departure with three arrivals and one cottage staying for a second week.  One cleaner up.  Another dry and cloudy day but feeling milder than Friday.  All cottages first timers at our peak district cottages arriving between 3 and 5pm.  Sunday was a quiet day and a chance to catch up on blogging and housework. Also washed Chris’s heavyweight jacket and hats and gloves that got used on Wednesday having already washed a load and (in theory) put them away for the summer! Finally ordered my hanging basket plants and only a few weeks away from the plant auction.  Cant wait!  In the evening we popped down to Andrew and Joanna’s for a cup of tea and a natter with some home made scones (and Cornish Clotted Cream provided by one of our guests!)  Here are a couple of pictures from Friday showing the snow at the bottom of the drive.  Hardly anything left by Sunday evening.
