Going, going, gone

We had a favourite cafe at our new house before we had even moved in. Exploring the area during viewings we discovered and fell in love with Cafe Banter in Lygon St. Comfy couches, a box of toys down the back, nice coffee, laid back enough for me to be able to work during the day, a great breakfast for the weekends and a fabulous red fire engine in the toy box that left Jacob asking continually when we'd be going to the cafe again?

Shame then that one week after we moved in it closed down. The sign on the window says that it will be re-opening soon as a bar, and probably from the looks of it, quite a nice one, but I'm not sure the fire engine will survive the transformation. They are selling off bits and pieces from the cafe, maybe I should call and see if the fire engine is up for grabs?
