Good afternoodle my cheeky cherubim & seraphim, tis’ now well after Christmas and I felt it was time that I interrupted your diets, general wailing (whaling?) and gnashing of teeth. Whilst thoroughly enjoying too much chocolate throughout the festive period I suddenly remembered that it was you delightful people who make this pub what it is (no, seriously, you do) and I thought, hey! We should do something for these people who might even class themselves as regulars. So after a couple of sleepless nights I thought why don’t we do a mulled wine and mince pie afternoon. (yeah they were sleepless actually!- I think it may have been too much coffee but nonetheless- they were without sleep!) But then minced pies are ‘all like old hat Christmas’ and I’ve missed the boat on that one and mulled wine is a bit ‘ooh yeah I’m delish if its freezing but it’ll be raining nicely by then so noone will drink me!’ So then it hit me- Burns Night is on the 25th – which is a Monday (except when I was planning this I thought it was Sunday) Maybe we could do a Burns inspired ‘regulars afternoon on the Sunday’
So from about 4pm on Sunday 24th January we’ll be forcing some Scottishy type nibbles and some drinky things on you. Yes that’s right there’ll be some free nibbles and free drink- yeah settle down- there’s no free bar or anything like that but just a little incentive to come down and let me say a big thank you for all your support since we’ve been playing Red Lions here in Hunningham. It’s okay it’s not a big deal- pop in for one, pop in for several- we’ll start at about 4 and carry on until about 8- It’s just an attempt to get everyone who considers themselves to be local or regular to come and have a jar together- just like people do in pubs….what a crazy idea!!
Premature Burns Afternoon
4pm Sunday 24th January
Come down and be counted.
love and out of date crisps,
Sam
