Half term fun

My toilet excitement continues as I saw the flooring for the first time today - very exciting.  It looks super smart.  The plumbers are working very hard on the maze of pipes that are being laid and re laid - it is a job I do not envy them for.  Our father and son grounds team have done sterling work on getting the shuttering in place ready for the tarmac around the new buildings and the builders are up on the roof trying to get the wood up inbetween the rain - even working under gazebos to avoid getting too wet.  Richard is now slightly obsessed with the weather and knows where each rain cloud is within a 50 mile radius.  Each day we continue to be amazed by the developments and I am now rather excited about cleaning the new building as sad as it sounds!

Our current topic of tea time conversation is the dish washing area.  It is perhaps my favourite space of the new building, it is spacious and roomy, with a roof on to protect washer uppers from getting wet.  I cannot put my finger on why I like it so much, it just has a really lovely feeling about it.  We are currently debating what sink units to get and how to lay it out - you can't just buy campsite washing up areas off the peg so we are spending many an evening debating it to ensure we get it just right!  Another discussion point that is ongoing is where the cleaning cupboard will be housed - this was sorted until about 30 minutes ago....

This week we have also been busy at Tregongeeves which are our holiday cottages up the road run  by Richard's Mum and Dad.  The seven cottages are full to capacity this week as it is half term.  The guests staying have loved meeting the animals each morning, and yesterday we even did a spot of 'Tin can cooking' to warm us up after feeding the vast selection of animals.  To find out more about Tregongeeves visit  www.tregongeeves.co.uk.
