Hi Folks,
As the Dust settles, Cobwebs grow and the Silence from the Wheatsheaf Inn becomes deafening. We want to take an opportunity to thank all of Customers/ Friends who graced the pub with their presence in the time we were landlords.
We had fun, laughter and some tears over the course but what a good time we all had. We enjoyed some amazing nights and had the Pleasure of allowing people to celebrate their special nights like birthdays, anniversaries, Christenings and more. Those nights ended with the customers overwhelmingly thanking us for making their nights so special, in reality they made our nights just as special and allowing us to look after them was our Honour.
Along with our great customers and clients we could not have done it alone, from the Start our Dear best Friend Scotty, AKA DJ Scotty helped us mould and shape the pub in terms of Entertainment with his amazing Discos, of which you all came to love and he ended up also becoming villages favourite DJ for all your party’s, and not just in the Pub I might add.
Donna his amazing wife helped us with our fantastic sometimes hilarious social media flyers and Videos as well, including the decorations for our Legendary Boozy Brunches.
We would also I like to say a special thanks to Sean, David John, Scotty Karaoke and everyone else who also help make the Pub so special with their amazing talent and entertainment nights, again you all loved looked forward to.
We were family run pub and without Justin, Bridget and the rest of the family chipping we could not have made it what it was Including our amazing staff as well.
The Wheatsheaf Inn was not without its challenges for us as you all know, from Brewery’s, Neighbours, noise complaints, The infamous, (B**r Garden Gate).
We could have made a movie out of those problems alone when in fact all we tried do was build an even better community village pub for you all.
As they Say ( Too Many Critics with not Enough Credentials) stuck their nose in where it was not wanted or needed, basically denying you all from an even better pub.
We had some good times, met some amazing customers and even better became friends but unfortunately we had to shut the Doors.
The world is different place and money is not the same for our customers anymore, unfortunately ,The Brewery did not care and was charging us like it was before Covid when the world was much better for everyone . It was getting harder and harder for us to make it work and it broke all our hearts to make the hard decisions to close.
Please trust us when we say this, it was the hardest decision we made but we were left no choice.
It is what it is.
We hope in the future maybe Punch pulls out a miracle solution and it opens back up for you all to enjoy once again but it will need to be a big Miracle that’s for sure.
It’s sad but we have to move on, thank you for all your support and the great times we all had we, won’t forget you all.❤️❤️❤️
Lots of love
Mark&Teresa plus all the Gang.
