Hello everyone

Just to let you know that the kitchen won’t be open today, Tuesday 8th September.

I do apologise again for any inconvenience. I know there have been a few occasions recently when the kitchen has not been open on a Tuesday, but for me this has been unavoidable because of the holiday season. Although my own son is now back at school I have meetings with his teachers today which are important to attend.

We are trying to recruit another kitchen team member, once we do we can resume our full Tues-Sun timetable.

Normal service will resume tomorrow, Wednesday.

Best regards to all and thank you for your support.

Steve

So, if you would like to get involved in the Galley Kitchen, give me a call on 07947 741946

The role requires a strong and confident, can do attitude. It will involve preparing and serving food, washing up and cleaning duties, looking after customers.
