'I want to make it into a community hub, more than just a coffee shop or a deli, I want to bring it all back into it.'
A pet shop owner, a wedding band frontman and a café owner walk into a café in Saintfield. If it sounds like the start of a joke, it's not, and the three mentioned are all the same man, Robin Martin.
"I took over this pet shop from my mum about 10 years ago and this has been growing nice and steadily, but I always loved that place across the road. "It's a massive change and it took me about a month, I was completely out of my comfort zone and you do have that fear," he said."I think you have to do that once or twice in your life though, throw yourself out of your comfort zone and it makes you a better person for it - it keeps you active and keeps the mind going.
"I've always had a vision for it - what I want to do eventually is amalgamate the two of them, this pet shop and across the road," he said. When he's not in the pet shop, or the café, Robin can be found front and centre singing in wedding band The Big Kahuna and that love of music will also finds its way through the door of Saints."I want people to be able to do album launches in the café at some stage and have wee candlelit music nights and things like that.
