Woodies Newsletter Nov/Dec 2009
Dear Valued
Customer,
Are you experiencing the same sense of bewilderment as
we are as to where on earth 2009 has disappeared to?
Wasn’t it just the other day that we were all saying
Merry Christmas and welcoming in the New Year?
All I can say is that I hope that 2009 has been good to
you and that the old adage “time flies when you’re
having fun” certainly applies to you, your family and
your friends!
This year has seen a few exciting changes at the
Woodchoppers. Not only have we received a lovely new
face lift with a fresh coat of paint but we have also
welcomed a couple of friendly new and hopefully by now
familiar, faces to our wonderful front of house team. If
you haven’t been by to see us in a while, please drop in
and experience our exciting changes. |
