Surlingham

We will be open from Friday 2nd at 12.00pm as usual for food and drink, we will still be running with our temporary water measures to get us through.

Progress is being made, we have the bore hole being dug and with a bit of luck and good will we will be open as normal in the next 2-3 weeks.

Hopefully we will see lots of you over the weekend and I can BORE you to death with the details.

Information received from Will Fitch

Unfortunately, Coldham Hall is once again closed for the week due to our water issue, we will be open from Friday serving food all through the weekend.

We have a new bore hole being dug as soon as possible and following that, work can be carried out on the rest of the pub, at least that some progress!

Thank you to everyone who came down at the weekend and saw us and put up with the repeated stories of the water saga so far!

I started writing an long email with one liners, wonderful images and just endless whit, which naturally ozzes from every pour of my being.

However. I thought. Why should we do all the work.

Like always, we have a huuuuge array of wonderful goodies for such a small farm shop. (Including local butter, bacon, gammon, fresh veg, eggs and even hommade pecan pie that smells amazing).
You know it is all worth coming to see. You know we are open every single day from 8am until 9pm every single day including bank holidays and weekends.

It is Friday. What you really want is a proper joke. One that will have you telling it to your friends this weekend as many of us seem to have lost the art of story telling. And if you dont find this joke funny then quite simply we would rather just not have you in the shop any ways.

Here goes…

Two ramblers are walking through the woods when they come across a hole. They look down and can’t see the bottom. They wonder how deep it is and go looking for something to throw down the hole.

They see a rusty old anvil and throw it down the hole. The hole is so deep they never hear it hit the bottom.

Suddenly, they hear rustling leaves behind them and a galloping sound. A goat goes flying past them straight into the hole. They are pretty astonished.

Then they hear a guy calling out for his goat. He sees the two ramblers and one says, “I’m sorry, but if you’re looking for your goat he just ran into this bottomless hole.”

“That’s impossible.” The man says. ”I tied him to an anvil.”

Have a wonderful weekend all 😉

With a little bit of luck on our side we will be open this evening!

We will be open from 6pm serving drinks, unfortunately no food.

All going to plan, we will stay open for the weekend serving food Saturday and our roast on Sunday!

We hope to see you all there!
