As the exterminator, your job is to de-populate the cafe and remove the wasp nest.

Started to work on this challenge but won’t have time to finish. I did, however, source a few images to work with and David’s waiter was one that I was going to use.

That is a truly oddball idea Loyd.

It has been well documented that many of my efforts demonstrate a subconscious plea for some serious help.

Great job of colourisation on the people Frank. I also like the overall desaturated look.

Thank you David, a little difficult finding period characters.
I see you and Loyd have been busy producing some amazing work. Well done to both of you.

Like David, I also like the "desaturated" look... nicely done!

Lovely work everyone.

I'm finding it hard to art again. We had to go back to the office. No more working from home and the work computers can't handle the strain of my graphic software.

Michael S. - Thanks for the coveted Gold Star - hope Steve agrees
Your plan "B" works for me -
David Mac - That's not a Smart Phone but rather a raunchy girlfriend picture sent from home by the look on his face

Yes I know. Of course it's not. It's just the pose reads so differently nowadays. It just shows how the time frame can completely change the reading of an image.
