My counter is finished. The plumbing is finished. The unvented water
heater installed with its expansion loop as discussed last week, and
that all works fine. The Plumbco macerator (discussed here a few weeks
ago) is a good quality unit at half the price of the equivalent Saniflo,
and works absolutely hunky dory at shifting the grey water from the prep
sink over the door and round the back room, to the bog. Electrics all
sorted, once we threw the original guy off the job, and got a 'proper'
sparks on the case. Floor done. Extraction installed. Burgers sourced
and tested. Chip fryers wired and working per the way we figured it on
here, after a couple of false starts with the way the labels on the
backs implied they should be wired. Much local buzz, so we're hopeful of
a successful launch Monday night.

Can I just express my thanks to all on here who have sent their good
wishes for the success of the place, and for all the invaluable and
freely given help and advice on all the aspects that I have asked for
help on. Good to know that I'm not the last of the helpful people in
this world ... :-)

Finally, for those who wanted to see some piccies, the website is not
really finished yet. However, my daughter has a Facebook entry for it
where you can see photos. I don't really understand all this Facebook
stuff, but she assures me that you will be able to see it all if you go
here :

Unfortunately, not much use to those of us without a facebook account.

There is some fairly good photos of the counter I built. I think it
looks quite impressive, but then, I would, wouldn't I ? :-))

The website is www.ljsburgerandshakes.co.uk


A few points:

Using the £ symbol in HTML can give odd results sometimes. £ is
safer.

The fixed table width makes the information a bit small on my screen and
I'm not even using the widescreen monitor.

I would also add Google Webmaster Tools, to track the site useage and to
give you information about the platforms people are using to view it.

If anyone's up this way of an evening, pop in and try a burger and
shake. Tell 'em you're a friend of Arfa's on the 'net. Daughter will
probably charge you double for admitting that, though ....


From the postcode, probably a bit far. However, as others point out, it
would help to show the town and maybe even the country. The web is a
global medium and, if you do use Google Webmaster Tools, you will be
surprised at where some of the hits come from.

Thanks Colin - all noted. I'll pass it on.
