Sunday started a bit cloudy at our peak district cottages but not cold.  We thought we would wait until it brightened up as forecast to go for a walk but that didn’t happen until later in the day so we had a quiet day at home.  Still there is always some thing to do.  Monday was much sunnier and warmer.  Three cottages departed with two returning later in the day and two cleaners up.  No problems encountered and a little time to start planting out some marigold seeds.  Still waiting for my bedding plants to arrive.  Both cottages arrived about 3pm, one of which has been before. After that I spent some more time on seeds and also accounts.  With most schools back on Tuesday we have lost the families we nomally would have at Easter but we have  more dogs arriving in the next few days as we have not had many during the last couple of weeks.
