c0ff33 vlog 5th November 2021

A much calmer weekend last week, with a trip to York on the Saturday and a relaxing Sunday catching up on shopping and family tasks.

Back to work Monday and we had a bumper weekend for @whiterosecoffee orders so it was a frantic day getting them all packed and shipped, which started another full on week of coffee roasting. The new 5kg batch coffee roaster arrived and needed to be uncrated, so it is now ready to be installed when we get chance to decommission the old one.

After the unpleasant break in at work the week before, all the windows have now been fortified with wire mesh - on the road facing side it has been fitted on the inside - it would look ugly on the outside and you really would have to be a special sort of stupid to try and break in on a well lit road this is busy 24/7 and has housing in clear view. Now if they manage to break the glass solid metal grids ensure they will not get in anyway.

The broken pane is still awaiting arrival of the new piece of glass, but for now is substantially boarded on both the inside and outside. Once fitted like the existing pane it will be wired on the outside - these two are hidden from view by a building - hence why someone decided to try their luck. Between all that and additional motion sensing cameras sending me notifications of movement - hopefully he next twelve years will be as trouble free as the first twelve were in the building.

We had a photoshoot of our Christmas gift packs for @whiterosecoffee - the business managing the @whiterosecoffee social media arranged it and brought props too - the photos look amazing and will be part of #sublimesunday when I get chance to do it next.

And of course it’s the 5th of November, Guy Fawkes night in the UK - or Bonfire Night, Firework Night, Set fire to any old wood you can find night. I’m not tight, but I never buy fireworks - totally no point when you can stand outside and watch everyone else’s for free! Plus it’s impossible to injure yourself watching other peoples fireworks from a safe distant.
