The lost twin found!!

We havnt really talked about this topic much, but it was not certain the whole time and we also didnt want to get in trouble in any way. I have weird feelings about all this moving around, and its funny to say that we still have a flat in Vienna, a flat in Budapest which we just left today, an up and coming flat above us and of course the bar. This means four properties in total that we are actually paying for as well, and yet, we still sleep on the small sofas we bought from IKEA in the bar. It is not that it was too uncomfortable, because it is not too bad, and although Scott cant sleep, I have no problems with it, but all our stuff is all over the place, we didnt settle down and make a home into our new home. So, today we left the flat from before, the one, that was our dream at the lake house and a month later we are already out of it, and we never felt like it belonged to us. From day one, the flat was strange and we couldnt just relax there and create what we had for example in Vienna. What the two flats have in common, is that both of them cost us a lot of money, but we always knew we are going to end up being in the bar all the time, but we never thought that we are not going to be able to have a nice shower after working. It could have been the flat that we stayed in for years, but it didnt happen like that. 

This is not Sky, its IGOR!!!

So, lets count, we know each other for over a year, we have been a couple for about 8 months and we have been in two countries, we lived in 3 flats and now own a bar together. That is what I call a speed, haha. Now for 4 days we have to wait for out new flat, so we can move in and hopefully we are going to stay there on the long run.

Anyway, everyone knows how it is, Scott was up at 4 or 5am and he was preparing for Zaj DJ to come in and set up the equipment for the sound. I was in bed till about 7, and then had to get the Consumers Book (Vasarlok Konyve) before I went to the City Hall, where guess what happened? Yes, we are now officially registered, so if we wanted to (and we would have any drinks here), we could open today! I can only imagine what Scott felt like when he had all his sound system in and he was standing in his first own DJ box, probably this is how I am going to feel like when the bar is done, because that is my second home...Having everything in, fridges, glasses and shelves and ready to open still feels so far away, although I know it is only about a week or two and we are going to have everything. So far, sometimes I felt like it is a never ending work, a mountain that is very hard to climb through paperwork, people who dont want us here, budget that is for me very important to keep up, and which we already spent more than what we planned. So, this is kind of nerve wrecking, but I keep telling myself it is only two weeks now and we finally open the doors for the public!!

The thing is, that we are going to have to wait with the late opening hours, because the committee at the City Hall only meets once a month for making decisions about it, so we already missed the one in May. Oh well, the most important thing is that we can operate. Also, I have been to the T-Home, we have to change our private contract to a business one, but it is not so difficult as they first told us. After that I talked to the owner of the parking lot, since we have to set up the smoking area with an ashtray at the fence of their property, so they are going to get back to us tomorrow, but we might rent a bigger place for the opening, so everyone can feel comfortable:)!

Scott made a video of the sound system set up, which you can check out here:

We had to decide who is going to take care of cleaning the flat we are leaving and meeting my brother who is going to take our staff here. Of course, Scott is a lot more suitable for this, he finished in about an hour, cleaned the whole place, emptied it and than took all our belongings here. We have to wait for the other flat till Monday, but it is all okay, it is just 4 days, and we actually has been here for 2 weeks anyway. 

Skys daddy:))

One funny thing happened today, the owner of Igor, Skys brother contacted us through Facebook, and we are going to meet them on Saturday, for a nice pit bull reunion:D. Igor is just like Sky, and he already won a beauty contest a month ago, I knew we could take Sky easily, because everyone is amazed by her when we walk:)). Today was a nice day, things are moving forward... We are finalising the drink menu this week, thanks everyone for the replies on Facebook:)! It is overwhelming how much support we are getting from all over the world, Hungary, England, USA and so on, we cant thank you guys enough. We already have people interested from England as groups coming here and we are planning to create packages for tourists, with the best restaurants, hotels, hostels and places to go.  This is the future though, till then lets get this bar open!
Have a nice evening, I am now off for a nice run to recharge myself for the rest of the week:)!!
