One of the last quiet Saturday nights at Lost

Today, we can relax a little bit, Scott is already done with his masterpiece for the day, and I think he needs a bit of a rest as well sometimes, because he passed out on the sofa. Finally the dogs calmed down, so it is one of the rare moments when Lost is quiet. Yesterday we have done a lot, Scott finished off with the painting (again, I think it is never ending, but he loves it:)) and now the inside of the bar and also in front of the toilet looks very cool with the Kurkuma colour. Also, we brought a bit more personal stuff to the wall painting, so now we can say, that everything that is here, decoration, furniture and so on represent us, and what we imagined when we started it. It feels such a long time, and our ideas changed so much through this time, but I think it turned out even better than what we ever imagined. 
Lost Toilet entry Art work in process!!
You saw on the blog yesterday, but now the front door is done too, it is going to look crisp and clean, popping out of the building, so whoever is going to walk by will take a look at it. This already happens now, we are in the bar working and constantly we hear people talking in front of the door, discussing what they read on the window as our goal. It will be very exciting to see what kind of customers we can get, but the hotel next to us has such a potential that it is unbelievable. Dont forget, we still havnt been to any of the hostels in the surroundings, so that might boost up our clientele as well! Fingers crossed, the building is also happy with the new colour and they are not going to change it...
Time Machine entry now with lighting effects
I was busy yesterday doing the drink menu and creating the prices. As we said before we dont want to go high with the prices, but too low neither, in the area, there are quite a lot of places to go if you are only looking for cheap drinks, and we dont want to, and couldnt really beat them. Our goal is to have a standard, a nice crowd, who can have fun, and even when there is a Friday night special or a DJ playing, we are not going to make people pay for the entry. It still needs a lot of experience to see the financial side of the things, so I created something that I as a hungarian feel is a reasonable price, and than according to later events we will change this.The other thing that keeps me busy is the flat situation, we decided to tell the above flat owner that we are more than happy to take the flat to rent, we would make it look beautiful in the next seven months till January and then we can sit down and talk about buying it, but at the moment it would be too big of a risk to have that pressure that we have to pay a big amount of money in a couple of months. Hopefully she will understand this, and rent the flat to us anyway. Otherwise we are ready to go somewhere else, it is not a problem, we already have a couple of viewings for the week. Of course, the ideal would be if we could move upstairs...we will see.
scotts dream!!!!
Now Scott is looking at old arcade machines, I guess I will never understand men in this case, for me sound systems and pinball machines are not too exciting, but we might be able to rent it off from someone and in that case it would look cool in the bar. 
Anyway, for today we only have to finish the drink menu and create some shots and Lost drinks, but otherwise, since it is a long weekend and nothing is open, we can relax a tiny bit before a super busy week, where finally we are going to have our bar and order the drinks!! Cant wait, it is so exciting!!
Have a great weekend everyone:)!!
