Another busy week finished with a party of Romanians and our first ever booking from Djibouti! When you stop and think about it the internet has become the great enabler, so that business like ours can attract potential customers from all over the world.

Our website receives ever-increasing traffic, but it is also still great when you can tallk to customers - even a brief conversation with someone from the other side of the Atlantic helps you make sure you are giving them the best possible serivce and I am sure (hope) they like to hear a freindly voice at the other end of the phone. Mind you tiem differences can be bit awakward to work out - I nearly rang someone in Atlanta, Georgia last week at what would have been 6am in the morning their time - not a good idea for business!

Noticed that the east coast USA is currently experiencing the worst snow falls in living memory. Bad news for them, and something for us to think about - I usually think that what’s hapening there now will be with us soon.

Hopefully this will not disrupt our next planned recce visit - to the area to the north of Inverness - Sutherland. Want to drive right round the top, taking in Dornoch, Thurso, Tongue and Scourie. Just about as far as you can get in mainland Scotland from Edinburgh. Should be dramatic - we last were there eight years ago, for Hogmanay.
