More cliffhangers

Licenses
It turns out that the council don't send reminders for the temporary extensions to the license. So we're not opening the bar at 6. We're also not selling bacon rolls because we are short staffed and have 13 breakfasts to do for residents.

Renovations
Rooms 2 and 5 are virtually finished now, but it's been a very tense week. The plumber arrived yesterday morning, but because the joiners were working in the bathroom of R2 he couldn't get in so...

he went home (see last week's quiz)

Shortly afterwards, I went up to see how the work was going to find the joiners standing idle. This was because they couldn't do any more work until the plumber fitted the shower controller.

Why the ***** won't these people TALK to each other!!!!

Anyway. Painting's all done, windows are re-roped, painted and generally working, Bathroom fitments are in place, lights are in, just a small amount of snagging needed tomorrow morning. The carpet fitter's coming to re-lay the new carpet in R5 and also the old one in R2. I haven't included any pictures because it doesn't look like much yet. Tomorrow I will - promise,

Our remaining rooms were occupied by 4 Swedish bikers and a German cyclist. We have two residents tonight and still have to clean rooms 3 and 4 in case other show up.
