   Dear #RepairCafe peeps:

   We have been running one in Coventry Central Library once per month for a few months, but I am bit worried that we are getting too popular! Each month we have more visitors turning up.

   Last Saturday we had 34 people bring items but we only managed to try to fix 24 of them, the others we had to turn away. We had 5 repairers there for 3 hours.

   How do we deal with this? We have space for more repairers, but they are difficult to find and we can't advertise more.
