Mama said there'd be days like this...

Weeks like this to be exact.

No sooner had I swanned off to the Western Highlands (see previous post) than one of our three barpeople was signed off sick for a week. Then Lorna's brother who does bar and cleaning came down with the same cold that I had last week (blinding sinus headaches, neuralgia - you get the picture: not fun) and took to his bed.

Then one of our two remaining cleaners had to resign for personal reasons.
That left us with one barperson and one cleaner.
So Lorna had to do the entire bar shift on Monday followed by most of the bar and all the cleaning on Tuesday and it hasn't really got much better since then.

However, we interviewed two hopefuls for the bar job and both were good. So full staffing should return pretty soon.
