Goodness me it is almost a month since 'Boris's Bar' was open for business.
I can see that that 'Duchess' was not to be trusted as bar manager. I have been paying her a handsome sum and what have I had in return......


NOTHING!

She is sacked!

Now I need someone I can trust to take over full time as this 'recovery' business takes it out of a chap somewhat.

If you want a job right here,
Form an orderly que,
If you are a chap 'just right'....or chapess of course.....,
I just might choose YOU




Come along now , don't hold back a career change is just the ticket for the start of a 'new life'......Hmmmmm now there's a thought !





Not sure that is quite what I intended....!

Does this mean that the sale is off, and this won't become another "Cockroach and Celary Stick", a trendy them bar ?

When we heard the rumours the locals disappeared because we were too old for the image the new owners wanted to project, a bit like a certain bar / night club here in Newcastle upon Tyne

Am quite happy to act as a kitchen helper as before, especially if you keep employing that wonderful chef.!!!!!!

Also quite happy to act as seat warmer for anyone who reserves a special place at the bar for anyone, those bar stools are really very comfortable especially with a large glass of something in one's hand

BTW glad to hear you are recovering well Boris.

Thanx Amy! (And you can spell Guinness which is more than I can!)

BTW, since I last posted, everyone seems to have groovy signatures with pictures on them - how do I do one? Is it easy?

These stonking banners were done by the one and only Kaz. Brilliant arent they. She is a genius.

Talking about Guinness - OH and I are are popping over to Dublin next week-end so will be checking to see if the Irish version is up to that on offer in Boris's. I'm sure the company wont be so good though.

I quite agree, but cant let Boris think we dont appreciate her and after all the 'old girl' is not 100% yet. Perhaps I could smuggle some of the real stuff back.

Here I am!

Firstly, HUGE apologies for not being around recently . . . . too many problems to mention, but . . . . . fingers firmly crossed . . . . all solved now.

Secondly, I'd be delighted to make you a banner, Kaph. See the thread in 'Suggestions' entitled 'Would You Like a Banner?'

Thirdly, and most importantly . . . . . . hi, Boris . . . . . great to see you're on the mend . . . . . can I put my name down as your faithful, trusty Manager please?
