Hello, I am the one who left you the work life in person this morning. When I left the restaurant, I thought I heard a waitress and I thought she was saying it to one of her colleagues, but I didn't quite understand what she said.
But now after thinking about it I think he said "do you know if we are closed until March?" In that case there is no problem if I am around here I might be interested, and even if you want, we could have a prior meeting the last week of February to prepare the premises for its reopening and/or with a few days of trial without obligation, I would be delighted.
