Well I needn't of had worries/sleepless nights etc. as it all worked out really well. That's me on the left skipping to the money tin, and Emma my best friend and business partner on the right who actually threatened me not to put a picture of her on this blog but I feel its time to stop saying 'I' as most of the time it should be 'we'! So sorry about that Emma but now we have a face to the name!! Emma is a whizzo baker of scrumptious cakes and we had some great feedback (even some orders). 
Here's our blackboard with our delectable list of cakes!! The Royal Wedding celebration was a great village event with a street party for the kids, local bands etc. and it was great to promote the tearoom. Everyone was so positive and supportive - well worth the pre- angst! 
It was so nice to see friends (new and old) enjoying a good ol' cup of tea or freshly brewed coffee from our lovely china (Thanks to Butterworths for the loan of their equipment). We have a few pics of the event which I have uploaded on to Flickr. (link to the right of the blog).
So the events behind us - Kate and Wills are off enjoying their honeymoon! and 'WE' are now raring to go!! So unfortunately our original timetable of opening around about NOW didnt go to plan. Still waiting for the local council to give permission for a couple of things - but the plumber starts on Monday and hopefully the electrician to follow. Will post some progress pics soon. I've left you with a photo of our cupcakes - as you can see we have stickers!! More about those in the next post as we now have 'Our Identity'!! Our lovely (and clever) friends have been working their magic (very exciting) check them out at 'give up art'.
Congratulations ! If I lived in the UK I'd pop in ... Bonne continuation as we say here.
