Some good news!

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

I’ve just seen on the BBC news online that we are in for a good summer - hot, dry and sunny - about time too!

This will make such a difference to us all, both from a business and a personal perspective.  The business reasons are obvious and personally I would love to have the chance to spend some time on the beach this year as I haven’t the past two summers.

Here’s  the full story from the BBC

The sun is shining

Monday, April 20th, 2009

After one of the coldest winters we have had down here for a long time it is great to see that the sun is shining so strongly now and that we are to keep the sun for the next few days.  In fact it has been so warm that my son managed to get a bit burnt yestarday afternoon over in Polzeath and Claire from the restaurant has managed to burn herself quite a bit too.

It’s not just the people enjoying this lovely warm sun either, while going upstairs today I looked over towards the pool and definitely saw one of our pet wild rabbits sat out on the grass.

Long may it continue!
