Early start, lots of baking needed before we open, impossible at the moment to bake once we open. I've done quite a few cakes already this morning to freeze, our back up stock is completely depleted. I've been using an extremely old recipe for my fruit cake, heavy on the cherry and almonds, they are loving it. It was my Nana's cookery book, must be 60 years old or more but great recipes. All in ounces, I've had to get the old scales out too. 😅
I'm joining Charlie at a campsite this evening for two days. It's a Huttopia site, not far away, but "paradise" according to Charlie. Very eco friendly. Just a lot to do here before I go. One of my waitresses is going to move in for a couple of days, but means I have to clean the bedroom and bathroom 'properly'. It will be good to escape for a couple of nights though. Hope you've arrived back safe and sound @Busy-Lizzie.
Good morning all 😊 ☕️
Have a lovely time with Charlie @D0rdogne_Damsel 😊
Hope you slept ok @Hostafan1 🤗 … we were threatened with thunderstorms last night … I’m aware of hearing heavy rain at some stage during the night, but didn't hear any storm activity … the morning is damp and a bit misty but not actually raining … think we may get a bit more rain today, but then apparently we have fine weather to look forward to for the next week or more 😎
My coffeemaker is still asleep … I may have to make my own …. 😲

Thinking of you as ever @Hostafan1.
I do hope the new neighbours are acceptable @punkdoc, couldn't be worse than the previous one surely? 🙄😱😅

Good day all.
