Sunday 5 May 2013

If it was up to us, we would be open tomorrow

Although it was Sunday, of course we didnt take the day for rest, after going to bed really late last night, we woke up around 8, because we got all of our stuff delivered by IKEA! Already last night the bar looked beautiful and furnished, and now it just looks perfect... All the seats are here, the sofas and the chairs, the table for Scotts dj box, and the interior of the bar just looks done now. Remember, we only have had the bar for 5 days officially, but it feels we have been here for a long time:). The new chairs were pretty unique and cool already, but Scott even made them cooler by putting a lamp under them, which is going to look awesome at night. The morning pretty much went by with me putting the furniture together and Scott making the video of our IKEA trip with my mom:). 
I really needed to go home after to take a shower and go for a walk with Sky, so I went to the flat, but once again, there was no hot water...grr! Not very nice feeling, especially since we are paying quite a lot for a flat we are not even using, and the only reason we are using the flat now for a shower, but it is not possible. Oh well, tomorrow we can find out if we can get the flat above the bar, then everything is going to be a lot simpler and we could just have the dogs there, and can check on them and at last but not least we could sleep in a bed again. I dont mind sleeping on the floor, it is not even uncomfortable, it is just that feeling when you wake up in the morning, and you dont have your stuff around you and there is no bathroom to start the day:) Fingers crossed, tomorrow we can convince the owner to give it to us, there would be no better tenants anyway and then we can even think about buying it in the near future.
Scott just posted the video when I got back and we went back to the flat again to pick a couple of his stuff up and make the bar a bit more equipped with basic stuff. We were starving, our eating pattern changed a lot since we are doing this project, some of the days you just loose you appetite because of the nerves. We saw a nice looking Indian on the corner of our street, just 2 minutes away from Lost, and after putting the bags down, we went for a nice meal there. The whole restaurant was empty, and it is quite massive, but we still sat down and ordered quickly a couple of starters. All the food were sooooo delicious and nicely presented, that it was definitely with it! We talked a bit to the waiter, because Scott was amazed and said the food was one of the best Indian he ever had, which is a big thing coming from an English person. We even got a free mango lassi from him and Scott talked to the boss, and we told him that we are opening in June and we could work together sending customers to each other. If anyone wants to have a nice Indian, we can highly recommend it:

another MAD!!! scott art attack!!!
We were more than full after this dinner, but still there was a lot to do at the bar. Although I fall asleep for an hour, haha:). But Scott was being creative again, and he kept on with his paintings on the walls, and painted the best Mad Hatter picture i really dont know where he gets his energy from but the more he draws the better it gets it looked even better than the original:)! I finished  the rest of the furniture flat packs. so for next week, we can put aside the decoration and have to concentrate on the paperwork, the licence, the dj equipment and the safety of the place. Also, we really want to start working together with Heineken and Coca Cola to see how the bar is going to look like. We have a couple of ideas more we have to do, so probably we are going to call a builder to do some bits and pieces nothing major but it is all going to come together and make the bar look crazy!! Tomorrow is going to be a very busy and important day for us, we have to get everything sorted next week, as time just flies by, we only have 25 days to do the rest of the work. But I have no fear, cant wait for the Opening, to have all our friends here and celebrate the fact that we are going to be open:)!!
