This weekend Boy and I moseyed over to ol’ Stokey for a spot of tea at the aptly named ‘The Tea Rooms’. I’d been before but thought I should probably freshen up my memory of it before blogging. It was lucky I did as it’s changed a lot since my last visit, having expanded into the premises next door, and more than doubled their floor space.
I’m not sure how long it’s been since they expanded but they seem unprepared for the size of the place: large stretches of wall are uncomfortably bare, the tables look like they’re staunchly keeping their distance from one other and the squashy turquoise sofa has been relegated to a spot next to the loos with a sad little ‘for sale’ sign taped to it. I’m really hoping that this is just an off period in the expansion process as I couldn’t help but feel pretty disappointed.
Here’s hoping that they get back on track and I promise to visit again soon to see how they’re getting along.

P.s. the ‘misc’ part:
This week I met someone when doing some extra work who had done a DIY leopard print job on her nails and I couldn’t help but have a go myself : )
