The WorkingAt Tag Gathers Momentum?


Those of you who regularly read my posts will know that occasionally I write a description and review of the place I'm working in, usually a cafe which often includes some cake. 😁

Well yesterday I had a couple of people ask me what the #workingat tag refers to.

Hmmm. Well it was just something I started to use one day and then thought it would be fun to continue to do so.

Yesterday lloyddavis@lloyddavis used it in his post that included a bit about working/not working on a train. He'd started writing similar posts and thought it would be a good fit.

Then, this morning lynnecoyle1@lynnecoyle1 asked me what the tag was all about so I thought it might be a good idea to write a post about it. So . . . ta da!, here is said post! 😁

Since it is MY tag and I OWN the copyright these are the rules:

The #workingat tag may be used when you find yourself working away from your normal place of work. So, for me, that's anywhere outside my home.

Hmmm. Well that's about it really. Not so much rules as one rule. And not even that, since I don't really own the copyright. Yep. I know. My generosity knows no bounds.

Feel free to tag me if you do use it so I can come visit and upvote your post! 😁

So, without further ado, let's finish up the story of Hixon Green's in Hove.

You may remember that this particular "office" started off rather well but went down hill fast when I discovered the wifi was a bit iffy and the vanilla and honeycomb cake was way too sweet.

Since the surrounds were so nice I said I'd give it another go and test out the breakfast. Well, that's what I did this morning.

I had the eggs Benedict which, I have to say, were delicious. I'll post the photographs tomorrow.

However, it still won't be too high on my list. Turns out you can't eat meals upstairs, which is where the big table is and, horror of horrors they only have white bread!!!! 😱

Working on a small round table whilst waiting for my breakfast was less than ideal.

Also, there was a bit of a fuss when the bloke on the next table wanted to order specific items for his breakfast, rather than the actual combination that was on the menu. The waitress got into a bit of a flap because she didn't know how she would put it through the till. despite the customer saying he'd be happy to pay the price of the Full English.

It gave the impression that it was all a bit much to ask for. Not really what you want as far as service is concerned.

Today's visit has also shown me that I actually prefer quirky to swish. The other customers were all a bit posh and not very typical of Brighton and Hove.

So . . . would I come here again?

Probably, but only in the afternoon for a coffee and a different piece of cake perhaps.

I suspect, the more I look around, the lower down my list of favourite "offices" Hixon Green will move.
