Bookings and cancellations

We had a partial cancellation of a big booking the weekend after next. It was from a group who are coming to take part in the Jim Clark rally which starts and ends in Kelso. In March, the same group cancelled their entire booking for the borders' rally at quite short notice which caused us no end of problems. So it's nice to be able to report that less than 24 hours later we've managed to take another booking for the room and we're pretty much full that weekend.

Renovations

Here's room 2 showing a certain amount of progress. Most of the work isn't visible in the photo - plumbing, cabling etc.


Room 5 meanwhile is coming along nicely. Unfortunately I'll need to take some of the floor up again to get the cable for the telephone/internet installed.

All the bathroom stuff gets delivered tomorrow afternoon. The joiners are going to build units to house the basin and toilet cistern - all will become clearer when it's done.

Mad inventor
has been busy in the workshop today. Good progress has been made on the cooling device for the cellar. I expect it to be finished tomorrow or the next day.
