Looked out the bedroom window first thing Tuesday morning and could see something yellow at the bottom of the drive.  Put glasses on and could see it was a yellow diversion sign telling our guests to turn left at the bottom of the drive.  That wasn’t there last night!  Neither was the road closed sign just after the bottom of the drive!  Despite the forecast the day turned out much nicer than expected. One cottage out and one back in later in the day with one cleaner up.  I spent the day catching up on WI accounts and minutes and listing some jobs to do and things to get.  So has Chris.  Over the next few weeks we will have the bottom of the drive re tarmacked and the courtyard a new top dressing of stones.  I took delivery of eight king sized quilts (from Dunelm of course!) as I will be replacing all linen again in the next few months and replacing double quilts with king sized quilts although the double beds will be remaining.  Guests arrived about 4pm.  Wednesday was supposed to be a good day weather wise but it stayed quite misty.  We had planed to go for a walk to make up for Sunday but in the end with it staying cool and misty we ended up catching up on other jobs.  There’s always paperwork to do and one of the jobs I needed to do was complete the paper work so we can have our bin emptied next financial year!  The business rates have just arrived too and they have gone up quite a bit.  In the evening I collected Joanna for our monthly WI meeting.  I had plenty to do as apart from my treasurer duties I reported back on last Tuesday’s meeting and did the refreshments.  Sorry no home made goodies!  Our speaker was a local lady who is involved in a Charity in Rwanda and she showed us slides of the work her charity does there and hopefully our donation will help .  It was very foggy driving back to our peak district cottages but hope you enjoy the picture of the dogs enjoying Tuesday’s sun.
