Inside Out

Today felt like a busy Bank Holiday which means I've already started worrying about the FOUR looming Bank Holidays.
And I've drafted in more help for tomorrow.
The weather is gorgeous - hot, sunny, no breeze. We carried some of the conservatory tables outside this morning because I knew people would rather make the most of this Summer-like sunshine. We still didn't have enough space. Folks were sitting on the grass, perching on benches, waiting for tables to become free.
We had a party in too - four generations of the same family celebrating a two year old's birthday. The guest of honour fell asleep in the car on the way so was left to snooze while the rest of the clan ate sandwiches and quiche.
I've had an enquiry about another wedding. This time it's a request to have a late night barn dance in a marquee next year with outside caterers for a three course meal. Rather different from the simple Afternoon Tea wedding we're doing in June. We'll see.
The Afternoon Tea deal proved very popular again.
As did the paninis.
We trialled a local Apple and Onion Chutney with the ploughmans and had very good feedback (albeit only from two people - is that a representative sample?)
A very lovely but long day.
I need a drink.
