Hi Stiggy, The man in the 4x4 plus a trailer was doing me a very big favour at the back. You really should have popped in.
There every day this week. If you don't see the chestnut coloured car they I have only popped out for something.

Thanks to everybody who passes the place and pips.

A fast update for everybody.

We are trying to open up for this weekend.

Not everything will be in place but we have to start somewhere.

**Garnet** · 10-Apr-12, 23:19

Hello Glynsu, you certainly have a lot of views...hopefully you get as many callers when you open, I'm certainly going to be there......roll of drums......da da.

Wishing you every success in your mystery venture.

**Glynsu** · 11-Apr-12, 00:08

Hi Garnet, thank you for the well wishes.

Once the signs go up I 'll put an image up here. A few orgers have also spoken to me in various places and one or two have even dropped in to wish us luck. Once again, if anybody wants to drop in before the weekend, I'll put the kettle on.

Can't wait for the mystery to be solved!

Wishing you every success in your new business. It's lovely to see the place looking so nice.

Good luck for the opening & all best wishes for your new business.

I must say I am loving your "mystery marketing" strategy. There's nothing like creating a bit of intrigue amongst us locals who are basically a bunch of nosy beggars!

I'll be out to collect my prize for the guessing competition.

Nice to have Stiggy call in today. They tried their best to find out the mystery answer but....I wouldn't let on.

We are shattered but are aiming now to open on Saturday at 12 Noon ish.

We were to have Lord John Thurso to do the official opening but at the last minute he cannot make it.

So, we have a little idea......we are going to invite friends and any ORGER that has been joining in with the spirit. Those that turn up will put their name in a bag and the one picked out gets to open us up.

Thank you for all your moral support.

Glyn
