Still, at least it is all happening this time.

It must be catching these house moving problems - the chap who has the office next door is also having problems desperate to move before Christmas but his buyer is having problems with finance so no go. He's got a little one too so they dont know what is happening for Christmas - they packed all his pressies away for the move and now it looks like they will have to get it out.

Never mind just think of all the Christmas parties we can have in Boris's which will take your mind off things. We could invite a few guests along just to make things go with a whirl. And just think of New Year's Eve in our own little bar - arent we spoilt. You'll soon forget the house move.

PS Glad you loved Love Actually Big Sister - I've already decided to get it when it comes out on DVD. I thought Bill Nighy was absolutely stonking.

And Cheers to You Boris.

Just had one of chef's specials - rather tasty. Think I'll just have a Bacardi and Coke to wash it down. First day back at work deserves a treat. All those clients expecting moi to know what has been going on when I have been in my poorly sick bed. What do they think I am psychic.



Another one please Boris - I think I might drink you dry tonight. Anyone care to join me.

I think you are going to need a stiff one when you see what they are demanding on the business rate from next year.

I'm sure there's a rebate Boris can apply for however much the rates go up = after all she is offering an essential service to a very important section of society - the TIBB Barmy Army need a nice, homely, friendly bar in which to relax and where better than here. Otherwise the Town Hall may find itself the subject of an invasion of an irate section of society - after all there are still some TIBB banners around and we can make up a few more. The Army will declare war and there can be only one outcome.

We will fight them on the Town Hall steps, we will fight them in the Council Chamber, we will fight them in the streets - we will win - no-one comes between the Army and their Bar.

Oh dear I better go and sit down with a large glass of something.

This morning we had a brief visit from the local chapter of Hells Angels

They were really polite and enjoyed the Caffe Lates and the new bacon egg and mushroom paninis. They said they may drop in sometime for their Winter Solstice party and asked if they could book a function room.

It seems we are getting a reputation as the only bar that doubles up as a coffee house as well

A visit from Hells Angels - who next?

Just goes to show what happens when an establishment such as Boris's Bar opens - word soon gets around.

Maybe that we will have to make it a members only Club - cant have our regulars being turned away cos its full.

Would you like some more of my muffins for morning coffees?

Will be in for my restorative glass of wine later.

Chocolate chip muffins and blueberry muffins please - they seem a great seller

Some of the Hells angels were back and they seem like a nice crowd. All keen on Cafe Latte and Expresso. I am now waiting for a brochure on paper cups so we can do take-away coffee and sandwiches Anyone want to submit a design
