From the moment we unlocked the doors at 10 past 11, people filtered in. This soon grew to be a throng, which lasted until about 4pm before it smoothed out a little. What an amazing response, I recognised many local people who had, over the few days leading up to the opening, dropped by and chatted to us at the doors.
Edwina Hayes played two sets to an enraptured crowd while kids were enthralled with balloons, balloons everywhere which Rabbie Kadhim liberally dispensed. Del Aziz kept the drinks and food flowing - thank you Suna and your amazing team! Sixwineseight kept the proseccos coming. By the time we closed our doors at 6pm, the team were elated, tired but beaming from ear to ear. Thank you everyone for making it such a special day!
