Great excitement here as someone contacts us via the website and makes a booking for a week's holiday in the summer. Yippee! Lovely to think of people staying here and only another 200-300 of those and we'll be able to pay off the humongous mortgage.
Apparently it took weeks of searching on the internet before they found our website on around page 27 of Google so all that time I spent uploading photos to the site looks, well, wasted. Must add Attend a Search Engine Optimisation Training Course to my New Year's Resolutions.
It also means that I really must get on and finish the list of outstanding jobs that I've been putting off for some time - in particular making and installing the kitchen. My Plan B is simply to provide tenants with a list of take-aways in the village - the Boulevard is our favourite. My wife tells me that this may not work for some of our more demanding tenants but in which case they should just go to Samphire which is a really great restaurant.
Anyway, must crack on.
