  1. New lambs are appearing all around us at the moment. We are about a week into what is typically a three week process, with twins usually coming a little sooner than the singles.

  5. Random email of the day: Southern NSW Local Health District informing me that as we supply *rainwater* for consumption at our guest cottages, we require signage to that effect at the cottages and a Quality Assurance Program (essentially a risk register) lodged with NSW Health.

    I'm all for regulation and safety, but this seems a touch heavy-handed and unnecessary. It's rainwater stored in concrete tanks. It doesn't get much cleaner.

    Anyway, here I am doing said Quality Assurance Program and ordering the approved signs.

  6. We just had a family of 7 (!) through our large cottage - parents and 5 kids from 15 to 4 months. While you accommodate them, you hope they are capable of keeping the place clean. These folks left it as good as anyone ever has. We need to clean for the purpose of readying for the next guests tomorrow, but you’d barely know they’d been here.

    Props to those people for having their shit very together, because managing a family that size is nontrivial.

  9. Young Jay feeding.

    This young Jay was too big to get on the feeder but had learned that he could reach by holding on to the main pole. The 'Eurasian Jay', part of the corvid family, are regulars in our garden here on the west coast of Scotland.

  10. Skills or tasks everyone should have to complete successfully to be accepted as an adult:
    - change a tyre
    - paint a wall or ceiling
    - cook half a dozen basic healthy dinners
    - keep a house plant alive
    - do a decent house clean
    - change your sheets regularly (same for towels)
    - hand wash dishes in the appropriate order (glass, cutlery, crockery, cooking utensils and pots/dishes)
    - do the full pass at laundry - wash it, dry it (ideally outside), fold it, put it away

    Recent young guests at our cottages need practice on their dishes.

  11. Sleeping with your filthy head on the decorative pillow case for your bedding when pillows matching the sheets are provided?

  12. Add another guest group to the tally of “people who want an early check-in and significantly miss on estimating their travel time despite clear information our website and booking listings”.

  13. Airbnb & Expedia Leave Cuba | How Sanctions Destroyed Cuban Tourism

    [A #video on #PeerTube about #Cuba from the video collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    Countless #Cuban families once relied on #tourism for their livelihoods. Not long after #Obama’s opening with #Cuba in 2014, Cuba was welcoming over 4 million visitors per year. That number has been cut in half.

    Cuban B&B’s (or casas particulares, as they’re known in Cuba) sustain communities, create local jobs, and offer travelers an authentic cultural experience. But the business has been decimated by US #sanctions.

    #Trump’s sanctions banned cruise ships, restricted flights, and placed Cuba back on the US ”State sponsors of terrorism” blacklist, changing everything. #Airbnb stopped paying Cuban hosts without international accounts, and #Expedia was forced to halt its operations.

  14. How close do the deer come? Here's a roe deer that has been a regular visitor here at Four Oaks and is happy to explore our garden, even stopping for us to take photos.

  15. Question for people running an accommodation business, or staying at one, especially a rural B&B like ours:

    Is it okay to arrive late in the evening (well after dark) with two additional unannounced guests and expect them to be accommodated, even if the space you have booked is capable of providing for them?

    I’ve been sitting on publishing a review for some recent guests who did this and decided to note that letting us know earlier in the day would have been the better option. If they did it to us, they’d do it to others.

  16. South Asian visitors from Blacktown staying at one of our cottages just called us asking where the nearest butcher for fresh goat or lamb is. I had to disappoint them; this is a rural locale and stuff closes at lunchtime. She was both surprised and disappointed. Not sure whether to feel empathetic or amused at the disconnect between city and rural expectations.

  17. I estimate fewer than 10% of our guests at the B&B correctly judge their travel time, despite our listings and website clearly stating how long the trip will take from Sydney, Canberra, and Melbourne.

  19. The Brazilian guests I just took some extra firewood to (they were burning the fire at full vent open…) are doing nothing to dissuade me from believing that their people are essentially carnivorous. They're sitting on the veranda cooking up a bunch of different meat and just grazing on it, punctuated occasionally by lettuce.

  20. Cleaning a guest cottage after a family group of 5 people visited. This is one of those times (and it’s almost always larger groups) where we regret advertising the cottage as suitable for groups. 6 bags of trash in 1-1/2 days, and their dog had clearly been allowed on a bed to leave filthy marks on white linen.

    We don’t charge a cleaning fee to guests, because we do it ourselves. Neither do we charge a pet fee, which other places definitely do. When people abuse the clearly provided information about our place, it’s a bit disheartening.

    No 5 star review this time.
