After the madness of what has seemed like weeks of inclement weather to-day dawned bright and clear and Elaine and I walked into town. Yes walked with not a threat of rain. As many of you will know England and Wales and south Yorkshire in particular has suffered from quite unbelievable weather. Whilst we in York have got by relatively unscathed we still had our fair share and on the last Monday in June we had a months rainfall in 6 hours.
This led to some bookings being cancelled but the British folk are nothing if not resilient and a bit of rain was not going to stop them having a weekend away.
We have finally got the bathrooms completed and even if I say so myself, our plumber has done a great job so much so that a recent guest was moved to write in the Visitors Book:
" So good this place should be five star gold status."
We are currently in the throes of redoing our website photos and once complete I will advise you via the blog. That will give you all an opportunity to see not only the bathrooms but also the revamped Dining Room and Victorian Room.
Happenings of interest in York this month are as follows:
10/13 July York Early music festival
13/14 July York Races
15 July Great York Dragon Boat Challenge
20/21 July Stamp and Coin Fair at the Knavemire

Until next time take care.
