POP-UP-PUB - at Marwood Church Hall
FRIDAY 16th May 2025
Hi everyone,
We hope you had a wonderful Easter and are continuing to enjoy the beautiful weather that the spring of 2025 has brought us. Having taken a break for April, we are glad to share that the Marwood Pop-Up-Pub will be back again on May 16th and, if the weather is good, we will be meeting at Marwood Hill gardens.
The May pub will take place on Friday 16th from 7pm. Rich and Bay from Thongsay will be providing their delicious Thai food (menus to be shared in the next email) and we are expecting to have some Jazz accompaniment from Simon Jones and his fantastic band 'Stormy Weather', once again.
We are hoping for another wonderful evening together, so please put the date in your diary and we really hope to see you there.
Bless you.
Marwood Pop Up Pub Team
