The Black Hat Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Congrats on opening the shop Mike. Looked very good inside. Nice displays with cabinets at a good height. Im sure everything else will come in time, but the opening was great, as it was nice to see how such a loyal following you have gained over the years. However, visiting the shop should carry a government health warning.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, visiting the shop should carry a government health warning.... I second that notion! Quite remarkable how so many of us were there and in the shop before 10! And I am very sure it's going to be very prosperous from now on for DRM, come on blackhat...buy a loco! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted May 1, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 1, 2010 Mike, if it stays as busy as that you will have to devise a one way system, passing the till many times of course. A great way to spend a morning (and a few quid ) Well done to Mike, Simon (night shift) and all the others who helped get it this far (not forgetting DaveC46026, who at just before 10 was valiantly hoovering up the mess left by Mike and Simon). A few posts ago it was mentioned about cash machines running out of money, well the one I went to at 9.45 had already run out of 20's . ps. Pie was good too .

Thanks to all who came, it was absolutely packed at 5 past 10. I couldn't believe it. Normal service will be resumed on Tuesday. Special thanks to Simon, Malcolm, Paul and Dave, who have been of enormous help and support. Mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
