      I stopped by yesterday morning to pick up a fresh bag and noticed a sign on the door and an empty shop. I panicked thinking that you were no more but was strangely relieved that a fire was the cause.

      Glad everything is OK, sounds a little like a blessing in disguise based on the plans for the rebuild! Dudley looked like he was enjoying a Sunday sleep in

        Just a bit of an update...

        The builders are doing a great job and are likely to be finished all the work by the middle of next week. Then we need to get our contents back and set up. Although unfortunate that many items have been written off, its given us the opportunity to upgrade lots of equipment and fittings. So next week Im going on a shopping spree!

        The cleaning process for Dudley began in earnest yesterday and hell be fully operational in about a week. Unfortunately, some of the stainless fascia panels were etched by the soot, and while we wait for the replacements to arrive from Diedrich, he will only retain about 95% of his smart looks.

        In the meantime Im just putting the finishing touches on the counter. The Elektra is at the workshop being stripped, cleaned, and modified, while the outer panels are sandblasted and powder coated in the original colours.

        We have some extraordinary coffee coming our way for the re-opening, and if I roast it right, you will definitely not want to miss it!

        Cheers!

          Good news, Dennis. Sounds like Dudleys going to have a bit of competition as the shops centrepiece.

          The Cuppacoffee Grand (Re)Opening will feel like Groundhog Day. (I recall extraordinary coffee at the first one .)

            Arrived this afternoon. Smells wonderful raw.

            Its a bit blury Greg, but I think youll get the idea.....

                Poor Dudley - aging is bad enough without it happening prematurely. Im glad that youre getting things back together though Dennis, and looking forward to trying that coffee.
