Has the inventory check been done?

It seems that sat watching the littlemisses swimming class is also a perfect time to blog. I was at a workshop a couple of days ago and many of the reasons people don't tweet or write blogs is a lack of time. I've thought about that alot and it made me realise just how much of my time is wasted. It was suggested that I download a dictation app for my phone but I'd feel a little silly sat by the pool talking to myself.

Busy day on site again - the annual Cajun Festival takes place this weekend and we have many of the band members and their partners staying with us on site. We have guests from Holland, Germany and France. The English are certainly in the minority at the moment. Great buzz around the park though. The organisers do such a fantastic job putting the weekend together, it's lovely to play a small part of it.

P.S. the inventory check has been done - just need a frying pan - added to tomorrow's list.

Dear Diary....

And still I haven't completed the inventory.

I have, though, found the perfect time to blog. The fifteen minutes I get to myself whilst waiting for littlemiss7 to fall to sleep is all I need to collect my thoughts on the day.

The snow has forced a paperwork day. Bills paid, filing complete and some SEO work on the website. All those things that the guests don't see but all vitally important to the smooth running of the park.

Damian is defrosting by the fire having done a late check of all the caravans ensuring all the water is off. With 10 caravans being let from tomorrow I can only hope and pray that all the pipes survive the night.

Maybe tomorrow the inventory will be completed....

A new season....

It's hard to believe that we've only been open for 12 days - it's gone passed in a flash and we have already done so much. We replaced nine of our carqvans over the winter season and they are now ready with aerials, steps and fridges - all ready to sell or to hire out to guests. All electric and gas checks are complete and we can look forward to the eight months ahead.

Sadly, the temperatures have turned against us over the last couple of days and frozen pipes have caused a couple of niggly problems. I think everyone has had enough of the cold and the snow now - it's time to look forward to Spring.

What does the season have in store?

Who knows! The great thing about our job is that we wake up not knowing what is going to happen. We can plan our day out at 9am and by 9.30am something could have happened which will change the course of the day. Take today for example, an unexpected gas delivery has meant that the caravan itinerary that we were supposed to complete hasn't been done yet. There is always tomorrow....
