Posted on August 29, 2016 by admin

Make your dreams come true

The day has finally arrived,i cant believe it.For many years i has wished and dreamt of running my own tea rooms with fresh home made cakes and sandwiches. It always seemed a distant dream and something i could never really do on my own and how could i ever afford it ?

Positive thinking and determination prevailed

It started only six months ago after chatting with friends and one particular friend questioning,well why cant you do it ?

She was so right.I knew i would be 100% dedicated and would give all i had to get this up and running. So my journey started.My biggest hurdle was finances.I didn’t have any.After a little investigation and a few begs i had agreed a business loan with my bank.it wasn’t massive but it was enough to open my shop and make a start.

Saving ££££

The biggest surprise of all was finding a local supplier who hired out all of my kitchen goods.Finding a local hire company who specialised in catering equipment west bromich was what really helped me open my cafe doors.

Food for thought

Six months on and i have never looked back.I can proudly say i own a successful and highly renowned tea rooms that is about to expand and grow to lunch and dinner menus with a new chef.

Who would of thought it, me a business owner.If i can do it anybody can.

Coventry stadium demolished,10 years on,a look back on how the stadium was demolished and its last few days of being open.

Posted on May 9, 2016 by admin

Ten years ago Coventry city played there last match on the ground that had been there home for over 100 years.

Derby County 6-2 !! A fantastic way to end the history of the stadium back in April 2005.

Based on the fringe of the city centre it was always at the heart of coventry city life, until the council made the decision to make room for e new residential housing development and an expert demolition company in Birmingham were called in.

The demolition took a matter of months.Heres what was involved in the demolition process.

2 ultra high reach machines

8 excavators

dump trucks

30,000 tonnes of reinforced concrete was processed on site

the existing top soil was utilised for the new development of housing.

2,500 tonnes of steel was taken down and recycled

10 excavators 1.0-120 tonnes

A wide variety of demolition attachements,shears,crackers,breakers,processors and crushing crew

30 asbestos removal strips

As Highfield Road stands now

With the clubs move to the Ricoh arena it did not bring Coventry City much success.The team faced further relegation in 2012 and may be relegated again to league two for the first time in their history.

It is said that the move from Highfield road has ‘torn the heart out of the city” and will never be the same again.

The move seen a big drop in supporters,from 30,000 fans to an average of 1000.

The passion and excitement had gone.

Now all that can be seen is blocks of houses,no more cheers and chants can be heard.

Some things do suffer with change.
