Hi Guys,
Just an update on the refurbishment. Please to say that we have new ladies and gents toilets and basins but still required some more work. The old kitchen has been dismantled and the new cold room has been built and is currently being fitted out. We have a new glass washer that should hopefully be installed by the end of the week. Still lots to do, but it's all coming together.
I'll keep you updated on further progress.
Thank you all for your continued support.

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to apologise for the behaviour of one particular person on Friday night's jam session. I have spoken to the person and said that this behaviour and language is unacceptable and will not be tolerated in the pub. He has apologised for his outburst and has assured me that it will not happen again. I apologise on my part for not intervening sooner.

Hi Guys,
I just wanted to let you know that we have now started the renovations in the pub. We will still be open for business at this time.
Please bear with us while we undertake this work.

We may have to close at some point, but will try and keep it to a minimum. I'll keep you posted with progress. Thanks again for all your support.
