Sunday was a quiet day at home.  Collected paper and recycled various items.  One cottage departed and the day turned out to be quite pleasant.  Actually saw some sunshine!  On Monday morning I went down to the market.  One cottage out and two due back in but one delayed arrival for Tuesday.  One cleaner up. Cottage arrived about 3pm.  A mainly dry day, a little drizzle at lunchtime, but stayed mainly cloudy.  Tuesday was the same weather wise but not as mild..  The Ashbourne Highland Show (the biggest highland event outside of Scotland) has been cancelled and there was more flooding in the Derby area.  Andrew was saying that some farmers towards Leek still haven’t silaged.  Andrew mowed the fields today which he does at least once during the growing season.  No cottages out but one back in, arriving about 3.30pm, they have been before, and the delayed cottage from yesterday arrived about 7pm.  One cleaner up and I spent some time on WI accounts.  Wednesday started drizzly at our peak district cottages but brightened up with some lengthy sunny spells even if it was a little cooler.  One cottage out with one back in but cottage already cleaned.  Cottage arrived about 3pm.  A day of odd jobs and in the evening we went to Monyash where my namesake from Monyash gave the Over Haddon WI a guided tour around the village.  I even found out some things I didn’t know.  We finished off the evening with sandwiches and tea at The Smithy which we all enjoyed.
