– Two days left…
Massively chaotic day today with loads of people on site. Looked like a tornado had passed through this morning, although thankfully calmer this afternoon. The newly installed barrel lift got a good work out today, as did the Port Street bar staff. The fixed seating is looking amazing, it’s like a greeny-gold velour, button backed, dream. The lights all have bulbs, the “man stations” have arrived (a.k.a. the big shelves sticking out from the pillars), the brass door furniture is going on and the kitchen is now a store room for our cleaning products, bar equipment and toilet roll dispensers. We’ll no doubt have forgotten to order something but I’m sure we’ll cope. The important bits we have definitely got covered (see photo of cellar). Tomorrow looks set to be a similar affair; the air con will be finished, the beer yard is being cleared, the back bar goes in and the stairs get their floor covering. Will update you then. Night.

Very exciting! Have enjoyed reading the development of this place – will look forward to popping in next time I’m back in Manchester. Good luck!
