I did wake in the night for an hour, but read a book, and then slept through till 9am. Visitors didn’t surface till nearer 10am, so a very...
Despite having prepped in good time for our visitors, still spent over an hour having a final mop round and finding more stuff to put away. Quick...
Hope all enjoying Boxing Day. We had a very relaxed lunch, mainly leftovers, and none of the pressure of yesterday (despite there only being the...
