Talk about a lack of communication! A coffee shop delivery was most urgently needed, but, having received no order yesterday it wasn't until we made contact this morning that it was placed. And it turned out to be a huge order! Fortunately, I'd been able to anticipate everything, apart from the blueberry muffins, so was able to get stuff into the shop within an hour and a half.
I'm now busy replenishing stocks, but, as things seem to be quiet in the coffee shop over the holiday period I don't anticipate much of an order before the beginning of next week. It's amazing how trade fluctuates. Clearly many of the regular customers are Mums who go for coffee and a chat while the kids are in school, so that won't pick up again until next week. It's a bit off the beaten track for tourists, so we miss out on that trade.
Never mind, I'm quite looking forward to a quieter week to be honest.
