Just to add an extra frisson to office life here at The Merchant, the construction workers are now level with all our office windows. This creates a strangely unnerving effect. Previously the position of the (now demolished) NI substation had prevented both sides from being quite so “cheek by jowl”. There’s nothing quite like opening the blinds first thing in the morning, only to find someone staring back at you from the outside when you are on the first floor!
Its all worth it to see the speed of progress on the New Chapter!
If you are interested in taking part in our very first hard hat tours of the new year, let me know. The first 20 responses I receive to petra@themerchanthotel.com will enjoy a tour followed by a warming cuppa in The Great Room.
