RIGHT!
So, people. Just in case you think your gentle prodding about a Gaelic version of the Sith Cafe website was going un-noticed... I have heard you.
Tell you what - as soon as I have a spare moment, between two jobs, two dogs, running a cafe and talking to the goldfish, I'll be right onto it.
Support for Gaelic evenings would greatly encourage my efforts to get the Gaelic version online...
'S e an trioblaid leis a' chanan seo, nach eil duine riamh riaraichte.

One month in...
It's almost a month since we opened. Sorry about the lack of posts - suffice to say we have been a likle bit busy..!
The house is a midden. We get home about 11pm - fall into bed and leave again. The dogs are starting to tidy up for us.
But - it has all been worth it! We are starting to get returning customers, the graph is moving in the right direction, the coffee machine works, and today - WE GOT OUR BUILDING WORKS SIGNED OFF BY THE COUNCIL! Woohooo!
Now all we have to do is satisfy environmental health - which we are doing - and we will be all signed off!
In the meantime, we are promoting like nothing on earth... We had our first Saturday evening do the night of Pride - which went down a storm. Thanks to all the attendees - and the open mic-ers (despite the lack of mic!) - Jakey T, Maria, Gavin, Irene, Nathan, Catherine - you rock!
Now we have lauched our first line-up of evening and afternoon events - check them out on the website - www.sithcafe.com, the network - www.networks.sithcafe.com - or on our new Facebook group! The events include - Gaelic conversation, Knitting, a Book group, The Saturday Ceilidh and a sunday afternoon Games slot.
This journey just keeps on going! Everytime we open we learn something new. I am becoming pretty adept at working between offices, and I have a very understanding boss. (Thanks!)
Thanks too to all our friends for your support and help and willing-ness to come and drink smoothies and eat cake (as well as paint, plaster and plumb...etc...) Nice one!
Okay, off to do some washing up (and/or my paid job ;-)
Look forward to seeing you here sometime
