A fond farewell to Dana and Julian…“There is strength in numbers”….and this definitely has been the case, having this dynamic duo on board this last year and a half. Julian and Dana joined our team at the beginning of March 2020, learning the ropes. But a couple of weeks in and the onset of the pandemic was upon us, and they rolled up their sleeves, stocking the shop, serving on the till and generally fully immersing themselves in the team spirit, working their socks off to help with the huge demand to supply customers with food. The pandemic has interrupted their personal plans, with a marriage being moved not once, not twice, but three times. 2022 will be their year! A wedding date is set and they are now to return home to Romania, to marry and lay down plans for a life together. It is with heavy hearts, that we say farewell. Julian and Dana have given so much in their short time with us. ‘Good morning’ welcomes, a coffee and a tune to start the day at 7am. Tea and cake for 4pm team tea breaks in those manic Spring and early Summer afternoons. There is a theme…great lovers of good coffee and cake! Before we knew it, a baking competition unfolded!! They have instigated rounders matches with barbeques, tennis matches, basketball games and a catchup beer or two, keeping the team spirit alive. ‘Thank you’ Dana and Julian. You have played such a significant part in our story. We wish you both well in your next chapter together.
