“Welcome to the Black Bar of Summerton. I'm the new landlady, Ms. Jennifer Black. Let's get one thing straight from the get go: yes, I'm the granddaughter of the infamous Sirius Black and, yes, I'm the sister of the ex-Quidditch star, James Black, but that does not mean that I want to spend my entire time here talking about them both. If you want to know about them, read the papers, read the history books. I'm not here to fuel rumours or reveal secrets.
With that established, I don't want you to think that I'm bitter about either of them. I'm just saying that there are other things to discuss. Polite banter would not go amiss in here, but I don't always want to be talking about my family. I heard enough about them in school and I realise that the Black family name isn't going to die any time soon, but I would just like to get on with things without it all being based around the fact I'm a Black.
I hope the previous patrons are happy what I've done with the place so far and I have left the floor open for suggestions, simply Owl me with the ideas you have and I'll address them when I can. I hope the new patrons are also happy with the place. I've tried my best to keep everything as it was. I am just striving to adjust to what is popular in the current market of things. Don't think that means all the old stuff has gone or will ever go. Can't beat a classic.
All colours, creeds, religions, species and blood types welcome. I'm aware that there's an adverse spread of people in the public, so it is to be expected that I will get that same diversity within the walls of my establishment. My grandfather didn't object to it and I'm not inclined to objections either. Just be aware that no one under the age of eighteen will be served alcohol at any time and it would be appreciated if children under the age of fourteen were removed from the Bar before seven in the evening.”
-- Ms. Jennifer Black
HOW THINGS WORK! Now, there's no rules as such, but you will realise that certain things cannot be served to people of a certain age, so if you are a Wexford Academy student, don't expect to be served anything alcoholic if you're not eighteen yet. Laws are laws, Ms. Black can't just ignore them. The menu is in a separate thread to keep everything clear and, hopefully, will be ever expand to cater to the ever changing market in the Wizarding world.
It would be preferred that if you chose to enter the bar that you have the courtesy to buy at least one item during your visit. It is a business after all and needs to keep running, even if you're just using it as a meeting place. Please be sure to make orders clear if Ms. Black is not involved with the exchanges, so then she can charge your account accordingly. An Owl stating what you have ordered also works, if you are so inclined to send her one.
Before anyone asks, no, Ms. Black is not looking for further staff to work under her in the bar. She's coping just fine at the moment and will make sure there is a clear notice if she ever does require further staff to give her a hand. With this said, don't bother asking her for a job. That would require her making up a whole new job for you and then forking out the money to pay for you when she doesn't need any staff at the moment. Her grandfather wouldn't be happy if she wasted valuable resources.
It is asked that you refrain from providing yourself with your own in house entertainment, unless it is the company you keep or a particular publication you read. Specific nights will be arranged for Wizard Chess tournaments. Exploding Snap and Gobstones are prohibited within the walls of the Bar, but nights will be arranged for Gobstone tournaments outside the pub, weather permitting. Quidditch coverage will also be a main theme around Black's Bar when the season comes around.
SCHEDULING! A schedule was devised for Black's Bar that will remain the same week in, week out. Any changes will be announced as per the Bar's frequently updated, in house publication. Please be aware that unless the changes have been presented to you in the publication, they will not present themselves anywhere in the ruling or general system that runs within Black's Bar. Nothing will change without notice to you, the patrons of the Bar.
SCHEDULE TABLE TO COME LATER!
SUGGESTION BOX! If you would like to submit a suggestion or some feedback, you will have to Owl Ms. Black directly as she doesn't have time to deal with everyone's suggestions during working hours (which is the better part of the day). She would greatly appreciate it if you were to Owl her the details, so that she could give the suggestion/feedback her full attention and deal with it accordingly. Don't worry about how she will react - she doesn't bite.
If you wish to remain anonymous in the information you provide, you don't have to provide your name on the bottom of the Owl which you send Ms. Black. She will be publishing all suggestions and feedback, with replies, in a brief notice each time she receives something new, to allow other patrons to see what has been said so that there's no repeats. You will not be judged for the things you say, everyone is entitled to an opinion.

“I have tried my best in order to keep the bar as it was when my grandfather first acquired the place and put his own little touches and twists to it. It's how I remember it to be when I was growing up, just a little bit revamped to keep things up to date and looking generally quite neat and tidy, the way my grandfather would have wanted it to be. You know how he hated to behind the times if he could afford to keep himself up to date.”

“This is where I will be publishing all of the suggestions and feedback provided to me by you, the Black's Bar patrons. I will be mediating messages to a certain extent in order to avoid any potential duplication of suggestions or any obscene language that may be contained within either suggestions or feedback. I hope, all in all, that the suggestions I receive are helpful to the business and the feedback is quite positive, if not a little bit of constructive criticism from time to time.
I will be responding to all Owls in terms of suggestions and feedback here whenever I add the new updates, so keep a check on this thread if you have Owled me. If I deemed your Owl to be of a pointless or vulgar nature, I will Owl you back directly telling you as such and you will find whatever you said will not be published here. Don't expect me to take kindly to anything overly obscene and vulgar. I don't expect and won't appreciate that sort of behaviour around here.”
-- Ms. Jennifer Black
