Getting Sorted

Apologies again for being tawdry on keeping up with the blog. The fact is I don't seem to have any time for anything anymore. It's a struggle getting established and everything takes soooo long.
Anyway a quick news update.
First the bad news -we are currently engaged in a mini staff crisis with 2 of the original team of four either leaving or left which has left us a bit short on resources. We are OK at the moment but April is going to be a difficult month with the a big first week followed by Songkran and then a flying visit back home to help my mate Nige get wed. We will wan tot get sorted out by then. Luckily the remaining staff are being magnificent and we will cope somehow.
The other tale of woe is that trade is still slow. Damned frustrating; we appear to be making progress and then take a couple of steps back. I hate empty pubs!!! (especially when they are mine!) We have got a good marketing plan and are starting to put it into effect but everything takes time and I am an impatient fellow at the best of times.
The good news is that we have secured a place in the Chiang Mai International Cricket Sixes in the first week of April. The Stuffed Beavers Cricket Club is at last about to play on the world stage. Some of the top boys are flying out and although I doubt we will overly trouble either the scorer or the opposition we will have an awesome week and I suspect the bar take will be considerably improved.
The other good news is that the website is finally up and running www.tuskersbar.com so save it to your favourite, check in everyday and if you have a website or blog please link to me to help pucsh us up the google rankings. There is a bit of work to do on the site yet both from a design and content pperspective but a giant stride has been made.
Lots of visitors coming over the next week so I will post some pics of happy drinking in CM
Until then ciao
