So I have a question. My helpers have been doing a fantastic job when approaching people as they leave the tagged table, and roughly 90% have been really open and receptive to the idea. Yet to date, I have received only one response.
Is it that people fear sharing their memories because they think what I’m asking for is too personal? Despite both the response and any details of who sat at the table remaining totally anonymous?
How do I encourage them to respond?
My poor tables, it’s been so busy at Roasted, the table has been in high demand, and I’m sure has been involved in some great lunches, brunches and coffees.

Roasted Addiqtion, Sunday 6 March, 1.15pm
Transfers: We were. Kerrin and I, to the table.
Two others lingered long at our destination and we, wanting to imbue our presence upon the press of the seats and the smooth of the table's stretching surface, glanced, perhaps more than was polite, at them until both our waiting and conversation were suspended and...well...
Transfered.
Kerrin traced, with the tips of her fingers, the whispered prints of cup-rims, which seemed to be scattered across the surface. Their traces, over time and conversation, sinking into its wooden sea.
We lingered for a little longer, with time-tea. Chatter and walled-photographs kept us company while we boated aboard the Table-of-Fringe to the shore where we departed into wafts of Sunday-sunshine.
Transfers.

The staff was being very efficient today, and cleared away most everything from the table before I could even get to it!
A relaxing breakfast after early morning market shopping in Avondale...
The merits of changing name by deed poll, identity confusion is it really an issue, could the agencies really get it that wrong...

Roasted Addiqtion, Saturday 5 March, 1.00pm
Hectic morning - irritable tired children that wouldn't sit still. It was so much more fun for them making a concoction of water, fluffy, and scone than actually eating their lunch. I remembered why parents with toddlers don't often go to cafes. Not such an enjoyable morning - but enjoyed the coffee in the car on the way home as they both slept!

Just did a plug for my Fringe Project at Te Karanga Tearooms on their Kfm106.9 radio station! Not sure I'll make it as a radio host...
Where are all the tea drinkers in K Road? So far a nil count on occupation of the tagged table I have there.
The tearooms have an amazing range of teas and it’s something to watch the staff make up your chosen tea. It's very, calming.
Hopefully I'll have more success during next week as it's the final week of the Fringe.
Hope to see you there. Hint, I'm usually on site lunchtime, early afternoon.
