Our first guests

We had our first booking at the B&B last weekend.  Sue and Martin tested the Gallery B&B and made sure everything was working properly and that it looked spiffy.  I believe it got the thumbs up.  Thanks guys.

Happy New Year!

Looking forward to launching our B&B mid January.  Have listed it with SA Tourism, Google Maps and it will soon feature in Wotif and perhaps Stayz.  So keep an eye out for it.  Better still, make a booking.  We would love to have you stay with us.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Got to work this morning and there were 3 cars in the car park when ususally there are 50.  I looked at my watch and checked the time and date in case I'd come on the wrong day.  Found out from one of the 3 people here that the workshop guys, who start work at 7.30am, usually go to breakfast at the pub on the last day before Christmas. Doesn't look like there'll be any work done today at all.  Apparently morning tea and Kris Kringle will be at 10am followed by the drinks trolley..... then a BBQ lunch at 12 followed by speeches to farewell the boss.

Spending time with Peter's family over Christmas, then we will have a week of holidays left to get all the last minute things ready for the B&B.  I registered the Gallery B&B with with the SA Tourism database last night.  I also want to put it on Takeabreak, Stayz, and Wotif as well.

Anyway, time for some Christmas celebrating ..oops, I mean work!  Merry Christmas everyone.

Love - hate relationship

I love our birdlife.  In fact we have a family of wattle birds nesting under the deck and mum and dad birds work industriously to feed the four starving beaks that can be seen over the top of the nest.  That is well and good, but one needs to draw the line at purple bird poo droppings scattered all over our pond and new fountain.  They even landed on our couches. We're going to have to drape sheets or plastic over these items until the nesting season is over or the purple berries are no longer in season.

I can see that it'll be bleach and a scrubbing brush after work tonight.

Pond Ahoy!

Filled up the pond over the weekend and used some plants from the overgrown front garden pond to populate this one. Tried out the fountain and it kinda worked except that I think it needs a longer spout.  Will now have to get some water lilies and some fish.  Simon suggested we take some water from the front pond to add some bacteria to the new pond to establish the water culture.  I must say we already find it serene to just sit by the pond and watch the fountain.  Will be good when we get some fish.
