Young and Old

Our suites here at 42rvh are very much geared towards couples - but, to keep our market as large as possible, we thought that babies under one year old could be accommodated too and we said so on our website.

Well, people have come and gone all year and not a baby in sight and then two come along in the space of a week. Cute Pippa has the honour of being first baby in residence and she left this morning with Doug and Anna as they continue their 3 month tour of France. Eliot arrived this morning from England with Paul and Caroline and immediately becomes our second baby visitor.

We finally resolved the cot problem - Debrah was a bit confused by the whole issue too and had the added problem of not being able to purchase anything that looked badly designed or was in ugly colours (which ruled out pretty much everything on offer). So we paid more than we might have done but it is totally in keeping with the 42rvh design ethos.

So old guests gone and new guests arrived in both suites and the usual round of domestic chores (room change, laundry and ironing). Debrah is still nursing her toothache with antibiotics and painkillers and I'm not feeling 100% either - we were both in bed asleep by ten last night and it won't be much later this evening.

Damn the years and the mileage.
