April 18th 2012 - Wednesday - yup House looks like the Adams Family ...

Woken unexpectedly by the man who wanted to read the Gas and Electricity Meter. Didn't answer the door. For goodness sake - when they said they were calling Wednesday am - I did not expect them before 10am!!
Don't they realise that it is rude to get up before 10am if you don't have to ??

But of course you are then awake - which is just as well as five minutes later a pallet of mead was delivered. Had to get up for that !!.

Printed out the TEN for the Music festival / wedding in June. Found had no 1st class stamps. Good excuse to go and buy a dozen or so before the price goes up. Another area of panic buying it seems at the moment. But we still prefer to make sure that the TEN applications go by first class mail- there can be less chance of the application being lost in the post that way. More authorities are allowing application on line - but it is still worthwhile having a few stamps available.

Visited the in/out laws and then back to run between April Showers to put the 3 master tent together across in the car park. Took some more pictures and extended the Video...



Checking the cash available for the next event. Have to ensure that there is sufficient change available.
I use an old sewing box as the till and a pot affectionately known as the "Crock Pot" to hold the twenties and all credit card transactions. That way no twenties ever get put into the "till" - which can save embarrassment when giving wrong change.  I use a £225 float made up as follows: £100 in tens, £50 in fives, £40 in ones, £20 in 50p, £10 in 20p and £5 in 10p.  I also carry as many £5 notes as possible. Never bank a five pound note is my policy. Everyone gets £20 from the Cash Machine - and the occasional £10 - so £5  notes are always a premium.     I also carry amounts of £10 notes where possible. £20 are not necessary.

The "Till"  - an old sewing box.
The Closed Till and the "Crock Pot"
Car charger for Daphne arrived this morning - seems to fit okay - so will try it out tomorrow. Credit Card machine all charged up and ready to go. Need more Business cards!! Ran out in Glastonbury.
60 printed and cut out ....

Glass of wine (bottle) - Home made Mixed Berry - yum...    Goodnight...
