    Lozzo spoke thusly:
    That's only my own tea collection I have that goal for, but I'm surprised
    that someone remembered it.

    However, a not too small variety of teas, which could change with the
    season, would be a good idea for any cafe wanting to attract me as their
    customer.

    Kind regards,
    Nikitta.

    I don't ever remember anything, I'm famous for having ukrm's worst
    memory. I do know how to google though:

    That's the first hit you come to if you enter the name taken from the
    email address in your headers.

    I thought you were famous for looking like The Proclaimers. Hang on, which
    one are you again?

    Is it up and running already? I'd have thought the best way (IMO & I've
    not read most of this thread so I might be going UKTV) is to get people
    in and then get feedback but I'd go with what a lot of others have said;
    space, fresh tea/coffee and a clear menu. Oh, and for me, not have
    everything dripping in grease if a fry up's your thing.

    You could also have a dish of the day type thing like a chilli con carne
    on Wednesdays or Shepherds Pie on a Friday sort of thing.

  10. Good strong tea, even stronger, fresh coffee (not instant) fresh cut bread
    for bacon butties. Good bacon and meaty sausages, and (and this I feel
    really strongly about) proper Heinz Tom sauce, Daddies AND HP brown sauce
    in their own bottles on each table, NOT those sh**ty, Bas**ard little
    plastic sachets that are both offensive and an utter pain to open.

    Also clean and tidy and when you bring your kids in to introduce them to
    proper 'Caff' food, you are not treated like you have crawled out from under
    a rock.

    Regards

    PS: and no flipping Grits!!

  11. Aol, brother Ace; that lot wouldn't know a good pint if it sneaked up
    behind and bit them on the arse.

    Fortunately he (my lad) has now left school, and is pretty adept at looking
    afterhimself in this respect.

    When he was at first school it was an absolute nightmare, whilst the
    majority of teachers were on side wrt adrenaline injector training, the head
    teacher was not, which led to many confrontations (she was one of those who
    really did not want any square pegs in her round holes). Still, in all the
    years we have been dealing with this we have only ever had to use the
    injector 3 times, the worst one being when he and I were cycling in the
    middle of nowhere, and became engulfed in a swarm of wasps (he's allergic to
    those too). Unfortunately I had forgotten the mobile phone on that one
    occasion, so getting an ambulance organised was a bit tricky.

    It is currently a cafe, but still being run by the previous owner. SO
    won't take over for at least a month, subject to being happy with the
    claimed turnover, terms of the lease etc etc.

    Shephards Pie on a Friday?!? Are you mad? Friday's fish day you fool!

  15. I have a bottle of super-stuff, brought back from the grower in Chile.
    Costs 40 bucks a litre, apparently, in the US. It's almost too good for
    salad dressings. You just dip crusty bread in it and consume. Yum.

  16. In uk.rec.motorcycles, Krusty amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom:
    I thought you said she'd already bought it? A bit late to be worrying
    about turnover now!

    Anyway, let us know when and where it is and I'll pop in next time I'm
    down that way. I do quite a good battered sausage ;)
    Forget Fridays then. Caffs are for meat eaters.

    Loz, there's no point.. Scandanavians aren't half as prudish as the
    brits, so the shock factor of asking "Are there any naked photographs of
    you on the Internet?" is lost.

    No, I think it's a question I should save for people who sound unhinged,
    and slightly dangerous.

    OK, 'bought' as in 'had an offer accepted'. She's got copies of the
    books which appear to confirm the owners claims, but the accountant
    still has to go through them, & the solicitor has to do all the stuff
    solicitors do. The signing of contracts won't happen until that's all
    done, much like buying a house.
    Will do - bring lots of friends.
    I'll make sure you're given a chair without cushions :-/
