It's coming to something when the person who is planning the refit says he's surprised how much has changed since he last looked in.
We had a visit from a Food Safety officer to check the plans for the café met with his approval and I'm pleased to report that broadly they did. In fact he gave some useful advice for a couple of small rearrangements to make it work more efficiently and help to keep it clean.
If you've walked past the front you'll have seen some strange woodwork over some downstairs windows. That is there to stop them falling out. The lintels over them are being replaced from the inside so they are looser in their frames than would normally be the case.
We've had a couple of little hiccups that have disrupted the clockwork planning and it now looks as if we'll be up to a month later opening than we hoped. The saving grace is that the delay is to include improvements. The café is going to be much airier and brighter than we imagined, and that should help to make it a very welcoming place. And, of course, the people we have will be doing their best to make it so.
