Chandeliers and Big Ears

It’s that time of week again when I get to tell you all about what’s happening at work and home and know that I haven't told you it all before.....I hope. The staff are fed up of me repeating myself but I honestly can't remember who I tell what. As long as they all turn up for opening day then its all okay. Oh yeah, I should tell you too. It’s Easter Sunday the 4th April. How exciting is that. Finally we're almost there, I can't wait.




The interior is really amazing, we have this Chandelier above the staircase that is simply stunning, it has Swarovski type crystals on it and falls in a spiral. Just now its a bit too long so when they clip off the excess I think I might just make a bracelet for myself but I don't know what to do about the bulbs..............might need to rethink that one



I don't want to tell you too much about the interior and spoil the surprise but I think you'll hardly recognize the place You will hardly recognize the staff either when you see them, we eventually managed to choose a uniform and I must admit they will all look fantastic and very chic, which immediately makes me think that I too need a makeover...........mmm Carmine can I just borrow your credit card please



I think everyone is now feeling the strain of the project, even the builders were poorly this week...........with a virulent strain of Man Flu. I went in on Tuesday to see them all looking very dejected and sorry for themselves. So being very caring, I went to the portacabin to make them a cup of tea, normally I just drink tea, I never make it. That’s what staff and husbands are for isn't it. Also I hadn't realised I had to wash all the cups first, not that I would have retracted the offer if I had realised, anyway I'm sure they were just playing on it for sympathy because as soon as the young lady that I was meeting had arrived they all became rather chatty and perky, Then sat there blatantly eavesdropping on the conversation! Honestly I've rarely seen such an immediate transformation.



Tomorrow, I have quite a nice day planned. Meeting the florist at site, then meeting the staff for lunch, some interviews for new part timers , then having a tutorial on how to work an i-pod and download music in-between all of the usual e-mails and telephone calls. Speaking of that, the phone will be turned back on next week so you're free to call and reserve a table. Now I bet you're glad you read the blog



Have a great week and who's making the tea??
