Will do.

As soon as we finish beautifying it I will also post some of the general outside view: all the exterior signage remains to be done (Christmas time slows everything even more down here).

We are also waiting for one of the huge hurricane-proof windows to be taken out and replaced with either a door or a hurricane shutter.

It will take a few weeks.

Thanks for wishing us well!

By the way, I used part of one of your posts for the welcome page of our new website (you just described my feelings about coming to Playa so succintly and eloquently, qualities I'm not exactly known for...).
Once that's up and running (pretty soon) you'll recognise your own words, I hope.

You'll like the new place, it has lots of space to hang out and shoot the breeze.

We have the "home cinema" in the shop, just haven't found its definitive place. I think first we'll see how people move inside during the first few weeks' traffic and then decide what's the best way of laying things out.

It's very much open plan at the moment, so we can assess the various alternatives.

Kind of a Playa feng shui method, if you see what I mean, whereas the TV in the old shop was more like a deadly martial arts weapon.

Congrats on the new digs!
The new location is really close to our home away from home. How convenient.
I really hope we can work in some dives on our next trip! It's been way too long!!!

So am I, but it won't happen again now that I'll have to work less hours due to the new facilities.

Why, thank you!

It's not as cosy as the old shop yet (I do miss it already) but it will be for the better. Unfortunatly in business one must take decisions that otherwise may seem quite heartless.
