Its only when I told them about the overheads this discusses does it become obvious. The <b>biggest</b> were business rates. Also the cost and time taken to keep a license is not appreciated, as well as the cost of hygiene. Anyone who is learning commercialism should find this a good case study...

Thinking about a cafe does give me an insight into how businesses make profit. I hadn't really thought about it before. An interesting view I think.
