Normally Fridays are one of the quieter days of our working week as customers get ready for the weekend, but today was certainly the exception! Polly had a queue of people for an hour with no let-up at all, so Mum and I made the decision to stop any more people coming in, rather than have a repeat of yesterday when we felt we had no control at all! We stood at the gate to the car park and told people we were full. Everyone was fine about it and understood our decision to keep the amount of customers to an acceptable level and appreciated us telling them before they found a parking space and unloaded the children!
Dad had been at home waiting for someone to come out and board up their bedroom window (it had a large crack in it) and when he arrived at midday he took over for an hour while we went in and helped the staff clear tables and wash up.
At 2pm I took Sophie to the dentist again and this time, as she knew what to expect, she felt a lot better. I chatted with the dentist who said he'd started seeing me way back in 1979!!
It was heavenly to get home in the evening and relax after the busy week. The children are back at school on Monday, thank goodness!
