GOODBYE AND THANKS.
Good day to you all so as Nicola and I set out on our next chapter of life we wanted to thank everyone who have helped us make the Oddies a happy and safe environment for all.
The five years has gone very quickly but we’ve had a great time running a great local.
There are so many people to mention so I apologise if I miss anyone out.
To our two most loyal patrons and now friends Daz and Villa Pattie we thank them both for great time’s and many laughs during the past five years. To members of our old County Arms football team Wayne Coyle (and of course Shayne and the rest of the family), Dave Burnside and David Young all of whom have been great regulars.
To all our darts teams, domino’s teams and football teams for the great support they have given us during our time in the Oddies. Thank you to them all for their loyalty.
We have made many new friends who have not only been loyal but helpful in our time at the Oddies these include our friends Linda and Dave Ashman and Phil and Sue Watson.
To many other loyal customers such as Julie and Jerry and all their friends including Teresa and Bertie. To Noel from the dominos team and Terry Pickersgill also from the Dom’s teams.

We would also like to thank Caroline, Lin, Stuart and Ged our landlords during the last five years, thank you for our time running the pub and I trust we have left you with a legacy to build on.
Good luck to the new Landlord Paul and his family. Please give them the support you gave us.
Finally thanks to all our customers who supported a local business. Sadly COVID-19 gave us an end we didn’t want but we believe the past five years have been a great success.
We wish you all the very best for the future we will miss you all but I’m sure we will see you in and around the town.
THANK YOU LOVE FROM
Nicola and Terry
