Maintenance

We are going to be closed on Saturday 20th August for some essential maintenance works. We're really sorry for the inconvenience, but we will be turning the water off so opening would be a bit tricky. Business as usual after that.

Summer is here...

... well sort of! If you're feeling in a summery mood we've got a selection of ice creams and lollies for sale in the cafe, from tubs of dairy ice cream to Fabs and Cornettos. And we've got the tables and chairs out the front if you fancy an alfresco lunch.
A big thank you as well to our work experience girl Lisa who has been helping us out on Saturdays for the last few weeks (we are open from 9am to 4pm for those who didn't know). She's been a fantastic help and we will miss her when she goes to college!

Photomarathons and bank holidays

Firstly, we will be closed on Monday 30th May and Tuesday 31st May for the bank holiday, re-opening as usual on the Wednesday. The day after that is curry night again - last time we had 20 or so people and it was a cracking night; £6 per head, ring the cafe if you would like to book a table.

We're on the fourth week of our photomarathon as well, the photos that the competitors have been taking have been excellent; here's a few examples to show what they have been up to. There's plenty of spaces left - we will be running the competition all the way through the summer; if you want to book a place, give Steve a ring on 02920 382151.

Easter

Due to all the bank holidays falling in a short space of time, we will be closed for a few days over Easter: details below.

Photo marathon

We are going to be running a photo competition from Parkview... details on it's own special blog here

Lent in a tent, and a regular curry night.

If you would like to raise money for a very good cause, then you might want to support Andy and Del, who will be spending Lent in a Tent in order to raise money for the Welsh Special Olympics Team. A number of trainees and customers from both Parkview and Baltic cafes have been involved with the team over the last few years, some of whom have won piles of medals in various disciplines in the past. Lent in Tent will involve Andy and Del spending the whole of Lent (43 days of it) in a tent in their garden, apart from two hours a day when they are allowed to enter their house to wash use the toilet. If you would like to contribute then they have a Just Giving page where you can make donations.

In other news, our very succesful Curry Night is now going to be a regular fixture, on the first Thursday of every month (which means I won't be able to mess up the dates on the poster any more...), £6 per head, from 6pm onwards.
