Just Humans Being...

We're quite excited, as on Sunday we're heading north for a few days to visit our folks... Not only will it be great to see everyone, but it's just nice to get away & staying in a hotel always feels like a holiday to us! Hugo's coming with us again, which is lovely & although we have things to sort for Bebe - we'll also be taking her out for a day to meet up with relatives in the Derbyshire town of Bakewell . A town renowned for it's puddings & it's Pride & Prejudice connection! We've had a busy couple of days & tomorrow will be yet another one, so tonight we're going to chill out, eat chocolate & watch  Fantastic Mr Fox  & try to have an early night... See you soon! Kay & Sime xx

Hugo's been busy with his Circus Workshop & Cornwall Alternative Teens group over the last couple of days, so we decided to take the two days off work...   Yesterday we were in Falmouth & this headland is called Pendennis Point...  Henry VIII had  Pendennis Castle  built back in 1540 just above the headland, but it's very well hidden! The sea was a lovely colour... This is the lookout for the castle... Some years ago, Sime & the kids saw seals in the sea here, but there weren't any yesterday! The village across the water is St Mawes & another of Henry VIII's castles  is just on the left. We think the large sailing boat is one of the  Tall Ships Of Charlestown , we see them quite often near to where we live.  The speed boat looked like it should be moored in St Tropez!   Lots of activity & that's  St Anthony's Lighthouse  on the right. The day was finished off with a treat... Says it all... Today we ventured o...

Who was born 23 years ago today... And turned our lives upside down... This is the girl... Who made us a very tired, but happy family... This is the girl... Who is still as cheeky & cute... This is the girl... Who has always been independent...  Especially where food's concerned! This is the girl... Who shares a special bond with her siblings... And this is the boy... Who swept her off her feet over 5 years ago... Happy Birthday!!! Sallnessnessy - We love you Beautiful Girlie! Love from your old Ma & Pa ♥ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ♥

We've had yet another full on weekend... Lots of properties to prepare for guests & lots of rubbish left behind by previous guests to clear up... The last 4 days have been incredibly busy & we just can't believe how much work we have! On top of all this - The Dolphins Fly had their gig at The Eden Cafe. Soundcheck... All ready to go... Very nice free food... Then the gig began... And ended... We met with a very good friend last night & this friend is going to be working with us soon...  Phew, at last we have found a perfect solution to our hectic work schedule & our friend will have a new income.  We have worked together before, so we know that this step is a good one - exciting times ahead!!! Here's to an easier life, a great working relationship, fun, laughter & lots of good times... Cheers! Kay & Sime xx

We're hoping that tomorrow will run smoothly, as it's the BIG day for Sime & the band... But first we'll have several properties to clean, so the pressure is on! Today - we have worked for nearly 10 hours, yesterday was pretty much the same & it just seems that the crazy season has arrived early this year! It's been half term this week & everywhere has been packed... It seems that every journey has taken forever with all the extra vehicles around.  Our hamlet has been busy with folks staying at the camp site & hostel, lots of people stopping & looking into the house from morning until night. Families walking down to the beach early in the morning & teenagers coming up from the beach late at night. All of them making lots of noise & not giving any thought to the people whose lives they are disrupting. Even the kitties don't like the intrusion... Fleaby & Lupschki watch the road from a safe distance! There has been one consolation t...
