CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Quiet in here.

Any idea where the ash trays are kept?

Keaydian that is a sore point in here, it's a non smoking establishment apart from the smoking room upstairs and the back porch where yours truly tends to nip out for a quiet ciggie when things are quiet, so ashtrays in the main bar I'm afraid are no more, we've gone all politically correct ;>)

Morning bunny,

Keaydian, sorry about the no smoking rule but lambykins hates smoking and he owns the place ;-)

Nice bright and sunny day in Hastings. I am looking forward to the weekend after another boring week at work.

Next week I will be in Hamburg for 3 days, never been there I hear its nice, not that I will see much as it work related....

Spacie
Great time to visit during the world cup

jeff, i know but the match is on 30/6 about 2 hours after i fly out ;-(

I have to pay 400 euros for a hotel room on 29/6 !

Stockbunny, this back porch is quite a nice early evening sun trap!

Morning all, In Sevenoaks today for some painting and decorating so we are ready to have some carpets laid on Monday. Its a bit cold here, feels like early spring..

I told Lambykins he really must tidy the coffee shop up and I reminded him that he had promised a refresh several weeks ago, he looked a bit sheepish and said he would do it soon....

Mrs S has just informed me of a special treat while we are waiting for the paint to dry, yes you guessed it we are going to Ikea and Bluewater...... AGAIN...

Actually I have found a good way of handling Bluewater, go up to first floor, go into Starbucks with newspaper, stay there until Mrs S has finished shopping, then leave.

By the way I have noticed that Mrs S rarely actually buys anything on these shopping trips however on the way home she always tells me about lots of nice things she has seen..... I obviously don't appreciate the finer points of shopping... ;-)

Sounds like you got it cracked Spacie.

I've had the fixer man in today, new modem on my broadband required, installed and running. All in the space of five minutes, the man from Blueyonder he say Yes!

Does this coffee shop have a Wi-Fi hotspot?

Derek, yes of course everywhere we have gigabyte wifi ;-)

Morning all! Bright and sunny here ..

Coffee brewing, kettle on and danish warming!

... and if anyone can get ntlworld webmail to work, that would be just great :-)

pot of tea and a danish for me JJ :>)
Sorry about the webmail, ring 'em up and moan ;>)

Tea and danish served, bunny!

Why didn't I think to call them!! Shall see if I can get through - must be a major problem as can't access their home page either and tried via IE and Mozilla :-(

Good luck on the phone JJ, it's a real pain isn't it you pay your subs and in return should have a service, not asking a huge amount is it?
I'll have another danish I think :>)

Morning all, dull and wet in Hastings, but I keep getting told we need the rain.

Well I dont need the rain, I will be happy for sunny and warm..

Any danish left?

Plenty of Danish left, Spacey - help yourself :-)


Bunny, yes - rang premium rate line and was left hanging on to music after they tried to sell me upgrades to my current service!! Guess, everyone else ringing too, so abandoned :-(

Ah that would be because you aren't a plant Spacie ;>)
Loads of danish, JJ's got it well organised this morning!

Too right JJ - oh well guess it's plan B - wait for them to sort it out....

bunny, how do you know I am not a plant, I might be ;-)

Cos you're too fond of weed(s) ?????
;>) only joking LOL
