Och! Bother!

The cash drawers that go into our tills have 240 coins in them at the start of the day. Ask me how I know this. Well, you see, I was in a hurry and took the drawer out of the safe, put it on the edge of the desk, turned round and...
Crash!!
Lorna's done this before. My variation on the theme was to drop all the coins into the bottom drawer of the desk instead of all over the office floor. We both did it five minutes from opening though.

I needn't have worried. We had about three customers in between 12 and 4 at which point we got invaded by a big group who stayed for the rest of the afternoon and made it a very decent day indeed trade wise.

The joiners are back tomorrow and the work will continue on the bedrooms. There's plastic sheeting over the doorway to room 5 and a sign saying "do not enter" on the door - that's cos it's been sprayed with anti woodworm and rot stuff. New floor beams have been bolted onto the existing ones and braces (called "dwangs") are going to be fitted between them.

We have four guests from Milan tonight. No early breakfast though, so we can sleep until 7.45 (that's known as a long lie in this business!)

... and so to bed.
