Yesterday was a long long day! Chris and I started out very early as he had to go and round sheep up for the Sheep Dog trail that we were hosting. Chris set the course up the day before so once the sheep were in the holding pen they were ready. Competitors came from all over the region and over 40 dogs ran through the day. The picture shows Chloe Cropper, the youngest competitor of the day, from Lancashire just about to pen her sheep. The entry fees for the day are to be put towards the World Trial 2011 which is to be held at The Lowther Estate in Cumbria on September 15 - 18th.
I had a mad day of guests checking out and others checking in, rooms to service and on top of that the catering for the event. Luckily my very good friend Denise came to help out and was busy making sandwiches whilst I did the cleaning. If she hadnt come down I darent think how my day would have been!! We served all sorts of sandwiches and home made cakes and tasty Weegmans of Otley Pork pies, which always go down well!!
We packed up our Cafe about 5pm and then once the clearing up was done we ventured out to the Mill 67 Bistro, as they have just started a Thursday evening carvery which as always was wonderful and after a very long and tiring day it absolutely hit the spot!!
