“We’d like to thank everyone who has supported us over the last six years; we’ve had some fantastic times in our little village pub.
“We’d also like to thank our fantastic staff, especially, Lisa, Mick and Kelly, who’ve been with us from the start, but also not forgetting all of the ‘kids’ who’ve worked with us along the way.
“It’s been quite a journey and we’ve made some lifelong friends on the way, but as our chapter comes to an end, the page will turn again tomorrow.”
