It either shows they have a good memory or it could be proof that I might be visiting just a tad too often! I think it might be the latter ...

Maybe both. Businesses that want to keep customers and the business running, have to do everything in their power to retain as many as they can and this cafe is doing great it seems. These days cafes and restaurants are not just that, hosting different events can boost the number of clients and it's a good idea to attract new people.

They had lots of balloons up, that added a nice touch. I sat next to them hoping, they wouldn't pop!

This made me smile. I imagined you jumping up when one popped 😆 I know, it's mean but it's funny to.
