I'm Jealous!!!!!

It has been a bit of a dream of mine to own my own Cafe. Good luck with it, hope it is what you are looking for.

Is this your first cafe?

Yes Woody, yesterday around lunch I was staring into my Wife's crying eyes as I spent all of our money. It's a very sick feeling but something keeps you going :roll: Today was a better day.

Ha Ha pb, :lol: Let me get into some frame of saneness first.

SAND CAFE GALLERY 37 Main Street Mornington.

I have captured the Peninsula in a different way I feel and will be putting some work up soon.

If people want to purchase they may or just sit and enjoy a Coffee soaking it all up.

Mic

Good luck with this exciting new venture. Now you can well and trully put some of the crappy times you've had behind you. I've been told running a small business means less sleep than having a newborn baby. Never having experienced either I can't comment further :lol:

Best of luck mic - when I started the Coffee Cart Company it was extreme hard work but very fulfilling - you will wake up every day with a challenge ahead and go to bed feeling totally satisfied :D

Congratulations. Just think that each coffee you make (or serve, if you have hired a barista) can be the best the customer has had!
