May 11th 2012 - Friday - TFI? - Nope just another day ...

I do hate cold callers on the telephone - almost any time .. but especially at 8.45am after a take down!
Northern Power will NEVER get my business - and some poor chap has got a sore ear this morning. I don't know why I bother registering with TPS - no-one seems to check the opt out numbers before they call these days.

However -since I am up - saw a nice picture and posted on the old Book of Faces.

Have to check the list and probably add to it.
Caught up with everybody else's postings of FB last night in the end.
Caught up on E-mail - well sorted it into the 45 items for follow up.
Everyone seems to be posting that there is sun out today - well at least it is dry here even if no sun.
Forecast suggests that the weekend should be hot enough to dry the canvass - which will be nice.
There are 7 sides hanging around the house - each of them 20ft x 6ft - so it is a little difficult walking around at present.
Checking yesterday's lists - Tax Van - completed - love the on-line service - makes it so easy to spend money!
MOT due for the van on 15th says the garage - checked and is 27th May but ready to go now - need to book it in. Other vehicles are September - so no sweat there. Van booked in for 24th May.


11am - Starting the TABS:
1.25pm - finished notifications - and everybody found easily on the Book of Faces.
Amounts to over £850 - so a couple of hours well spent.

New Booking today for a birthday party in June. On the 23rd so will be a quick turn around from the next Curious Pastimes event - but it is at Tournament Stud - a site we know well. One day event - but since we have had Cow Pie and the Jhereg event cancelled under us so far this year - it would be rude not to enjoy.
Took the opportunity of updating the Crimson Moon Website while there. The Events listing and the main page.
Had a lovely picture taken while at Glastonbury - by a photographer called Nigel - "Point & Shoot"  Medieval Photography - changed my profile picture on FB.

Hmm - done the calculations for the event - and does not make good reading. 25% down on last year - but I suppose it was an exceptionally cold event with poor weather and not the sort to drive people into the Tavern - particularly with the soft drinks which I am holding large stocks now.

All the Tabs reported  - a couple came back questioning the content - listed the tab and  happy with detail. One queried and thinks that others put drinks on his tab . Have queried back with the girls in case we can see what may have happened. Scanned the tab and sent to  Pip and the customer .. will see if we can identify anyone playing the tab game ...
   
and so to bed ....
