Hey everyone,
First of all Frances, Rebecca, Sara and I want to say an enormous thank you to everyone for all their condolences, memories you’ve shared about my Dad, all the cards you’ve sent and for all flowers we’ve received. The response has been staggering which is obviously a testament to how lovely you all are, but also a testament to how much you all thought of him.
Given that this is such a large change in our personal and professional lives we’ve made the decision to close for a month starting tomorrow Friday 21 Jan so we can have a little time to ourselves, concentrate on the funeral (which is next week), and so that we can take a little time to get our house in order and come out the gates fighting fit and raring to go.
So, tonight is the last night that you can get your Tudor on for about a month.
During that time we’ll be having a bloody good clear out, and I may even get round to pulling out some old wiring that’s surplus to requirements..(Don’t hold your breath). We’ll also be getting the new manager up to speed, sorting out new menus and generally just sprucing things up and looking to the future.
Covid restrictions are a changin’ so this also seems a good time to address that and see how we want to handle things after this month.
Tonight is also the last chance you’ll get to see Rob’s cherubic yet bearded face behind the bar as he’s moving on, we want to thank him for all his hard work, and wish him all the best for impending fatherhood and every success in the future, even though sleep will be off the menu for the next 18yrs.
So yea, last night tonight to have a booze in the Tudor for a month, we’ll be back soon, we just need a little time to process and sort things out for the next chapter.
Thanks again, you’re all bloody amazing, hope to see you tonight, but if not I hope to see you at some point downstairs enjoying yourselves real soon.
Russ Jnr.
