Nicotine

Years of smoking have left the bar a brown colour and this evening after close of business we set to removing the paper from the back bar ceiling. Our fingers were stained brown after we had got the last of it off. I'm heading for B&Q (diy shop) tomorrow for paper, paint, sugar soap, brushes etc and we're going to give the bar and front hall a freshen up. Jen (barmaid) and Chris (barfly) are going to help. The bar will be opening at 6 tomorrow (Monday), Tuesday and Wednesday.

And the joiners will be here too. As seems to be normal in this project (and any other normal project) there is already a delay and they'll be here after lunch rather than first thing.
