WOW! We have been overwhelmed by the support from the village since we took over the lease of Ye Olde Globe in September, following the sale of the property by Enterprise Inns.

To put the record straight, although Nic wanted to buy the pub outright, he was continually outbid at the auction by David McCabe of Plymouth, who owns a chain of 22 pubs. While he owns the property here in Berrynarbor, we own the Ye Olde Globe business, and are the tenanted Licensees.

A special big THANK YOU to all those who have taken part in the painting parties over successive weekends, transforming and brightening up both the interior and exterior of the pub. Gone are the dark nicotine-orange coloured walls and off-white ceilings, while outside it has been brought into line with the black-and-white theme of the central village. This is the first stage in our refurbishment programme that will eventually also include new soft furnishings

Now a Free House, we are able to offer a selection of regular and guest beers, as well as good quality wines and other liquid refreshments. On the food side, we have two new resident chefs - Stuart [formerly of the Sawmill] and Peter - who have introduced a new menu and offer a range of imaginative specials, including the Christmas menu. They are also planning future themed menu evenings; the first, a Curry Night, precedes the distribution of this Newsletter. While on the subject of food, the pub will be open on Christmas Day, but we are sorry that all Christmas lunch tables have been reserved already.

Weekly Sunday Night Quizzes have returned, as will the Boxing Day Quiz - don't forget to reserve your table. There will be a New Year's Eve Party with free buffet for those in fancy dress. Your favourite fancy dress is the theme, so come along wearing whatever you feel comfortable in.

For the future, we shall be arranging live music evenings and other events going forward into the New Year.

Whether a regular, past customer or a newcomer to the village, we, along with all our team, Becky [Bex], Emma, Mia and Poppy behind the bar, Stuart and Peter in the kitchen and those behind the scenes, look forward to welcoming you to the 'NEW' Ye Olde Globe!

NEWS FROM YE OLD GLOBE

A big THANK YOU to all who came to the many events over Christmas and New Year - it was lovely to see so many from the village. It was a very busy couple of weeks...BUT... remember, we're here all year round and it would be great to see the 'occasional' locals join our regulars more often.

More than £500 was raised for charity over the holiday period: the carols in the square followed by the reindeer drive in the pub, raised over £300 for the "Singing for the Brain" charity in Ilfracombe and the Air Ambulance; the Boxing Night Quiz raised £65 from the raffle and then the Winners donated their £42 prize money, making a total of £107 for the Toddler Group; while the New Year's Eve Raffle (organised by Ray Davey) raised in the region of £100 for the R.N.L.I.

Well done Berrynarbor... and that's excluding the Christmas card distribution, the PTA Christmas Fayre and the many, many other fundraising events that take place throughout the year. You ALL should be PROUD to be part of such an amazing community. I know I am! We live in a wonderful village with a thriving community, one of a dying breed that still retains a church, school, village shop, a community centre (Manor Hall) and, yes, the pub. These are the things that so many people look for when choosing where to live and they have a positive effect on house prices. To lose any one of them through lack of support would be tragic and often has a knock-on effect on the others.

To ensure the pub remains part of the community we introduced our Loyalty Card scheme - it's our way of saying 'Thank You' to the regulars and helping to make it more affordable to visit the pub more often. It has proved to be a great success and whilst we were changing the offer monthly we have now decided to stick to "10% off food and drink" when you show your card.

So, if you're not a regular and haven't got a card yet then fill in a form at the bar and start enjoying the benefits! Why not suggest to a few friends..."hey, let's go to the pub this weekend"....or "do you fancy having a go at the quiz (it's just for fun so we've nothing to lose)", or "let's take the kids to run around in the play area while we catch up over a drink or a coffee"?

While we are privileged to run the Globe, it is YOUR pub, so if there are reasons why you don't come along, or don't come that often, please let me know how or what you would like to see change? I really am interested in your feedback. There will be a box on the bar for your comments, which can be anonymous if you like!

We look forward to seeing you.

NEWS FROM YE OLD GLOBE - 'The Pub is the Hub'

Well, if the activities we hosted in February and March are anything to go by, then Prince Charles is right when he coined the phrase 'The Pub is the Hub'! These last couple of months have been really busy with community activity and various Manor Hall groups, such as Toddlers, Spinners and Crafters using our function room during the Hall's refurbishment.

As well as the various clubs and groups who use us as their meeting ground - and thanks, it's great to see you all and you're always welcome - we raised a giggle [several in fact] and £30 for village charities with our Anne Summers Night, when the back room became a girls only domain, closely followed by a Valentine's Night, totally unconnected of course! The Friendship Group had their belated Christmas Lunch and will, by the time you read this, have met here again for their monthly lunch. We hosted the Bell Ringers and their buddies from Combe Martin, a Christening buffet, the Combe Martin Ladies Darts Singles Competition, the list goes on ...

The community really came together for the wonderful 'Sing-a-long Folk Night', organised by Tony Summers to raise money for the church bells. It was a great night with a lovely village atmosphere, and everyone is asking "When is the next one?"

Two new faces have joined our team. Many of you have already met Steve, our new Head Chef, who has transferred permanently from The Sawmill. Steve, back from his recent holiday and raring to go, uses fresh herbs and local Devon produce to get your taste buds dancing. So, for those of you who have not sampled his delicious food, now's your chance. We take this opportunity to introduce Sean, who will be working at both the pubs. He has been covering at The Globe whilst Steve was away and will stand in for him on his days off. He and his partner Sam and daughter Isabelle have moved to Berrynarbor and we are delighted to have him as part of our team.

Easter and May Bank Holiday week-ends are fast approaching. Quiz Nights will continue after Easter, on 26th April and 10th May after which they will be confirmed.

Although busy times are ahead with the tourist season fast approaching, we look forward to welcoming both old and new customers alike - whether it's for a meeting, a social gathering or just a quiet drink or dinner at your 'local'. We are one of the luckier villages these days with a real community pub and a wonderful new community shop. As they say, "Use Them or Lose Them"!

We look forward to welcoming you to 'The Hub' and to The Sawmill.

Karen, Karl, Don, Edith and The Team

NEWS FROM THE GLOBE AND THE SAWMILL INN

We have various events planned for February and March which I have listed below, but first of all, looking back at the Christmas and New Year period, we've had some really good nights.

Christmas Eve is always a great night in The Globe - there's a lovely atmosphere and it's great to see people come back to the village to visit family. The 1st Prize in the Draw [£50] went to Michael Bowden and on his birthday too! Well done, Mitch.

Boxing Night always pulls in a good crowd for the End of Year Quiz. The Walls/Fanner team won the money which they very kindly donated to the raffle prize money that we collect every quiz night, this will be shared out in June.

There was a good turnout for the Games Night between Christmas and the New Year, with 40 people competing at 'Killer', Pool, Darts and Skittles - no amazing prizes to be won, it was just for fun and I think from the feedback that those who took part definitely had fun! Hopefully I can arrange another Games Night before the summer.

... and, of course, New Year's Eve! I personally had the best New Year's Eve Night that I've had for many years. There were T Birds and Pink Ladies, Teddy Boys, loads of polka dots, stylish sunglasses . . . and more.

Dan Wassall, Wayne Green and Phil Horton were excellent - as a band named 'Tommy Tornado and the Twisters' they had got together purely for the purpose of playing The Globe on New Year's Eve, although they should definitely play together more often! Thanks guys, you were fantastic. Dan, Wayne and Phil would like to thank everyone at The Globe for the excellent reception they received.

The dancing in the bar continued until a little after 2.00 a.m. with rock 'n' roll [and more] - I seem to remember Cotton Eye Joe playing at some point - pumping out of the big speakers that the band had used earlier.

And so to 2009. We have already had an "All You Can Eat" Curry Night at The Globe which went very well and by the time this is published, we shall also have had our 'Team' Dinner at the Sawmill, "All You Can Eat" Chinese at the Sawmill, which is already half booked and, of course, the 60's/70's/80's Disco [for the North Devon Hospice] on the 31st January, for which I have had to order more tickets as the first 150 have already sold.

So what's next ... ?

Well, the Quiz Nights will continue and maybe [depending on feedback] we might hold the quiz weekly - to be confirmed. Of course Valentine's Day and Mothering Sunday [22nd March] are just around the corner, so don't leave it too late to book your table.

Other events include ...

An Ann Summers Party in the 'back' room at The Globe on Friday, 6th February. Sorry, men are not allowed but we can pass a catalogue into the bar for you to place orders! Items ordered will arrive on the 11th in time for Valentine's Day!! All ladies 18 years and over are invited, so come along and have some fun.

Then on 13th March, yes that's Friday 13th March, we'll have a Spooky Friday 13th Karaoke Night in the bar at The Globe - dress up as something scary and join us at 9.30 p.m.

And finally, the "All You Can Eat" for £9.95 Nights for February and March are:

• Saturday, 21st February at The Globe - Italian
• Saturday, 7th March at the Sawmill - Mexican

Booking strongly advised for both nights.

So, hopefully we'll be seeing you all soon.

Happy New Year Everyone, from Don, Edith, Karen, Karl & Staff.

It was a good night and Helen and I [from the Sawmill] set off from Bideford Rugby Club around 8.15 p.m. and were led across the old bridge to join the Tarka Trail to Barnstaple. At Freminghton we were offered soup, but with only 3.5 miles to go, we opted to just get it over with, so accepted the 'Twilight' chocolate and carried on! We reached Barnstaple Rugby Club just before 11 o'clock, and just before the rain started - oh so glad we set off early! Luckily we didn't suffer too much the next day and I only got one blister - not too bad really. Many thanks for the sponsor money.

NEWS FROM THE GLOBE & SAWMILL INN

We have decided to do some more Quiz Nights after Easter, starting at 8.30 p.m. they will be on Sundays 10th and 24th April, 8th and 22nd May. The one on the 10th April will be slightly different - the entry fee will be a £1 and all the money received will go towards Berry in Bloom.

Held in the Family Room, we already have a crowd of 'regular' teams, but if anyone who hasn't been to the Globe Quiz Night would like to come along, you would be very welcome, either as a team of your own or join with someone else on the night. It is a very friendly atmosphere and we don't take things too seriously, so come along and join

The Sawmill Inn is open at lunchtimes again and both pubs will be opening from 6.00 p.m. starting on Friday, 27th May.

And finally . . . to alleviate any panic due to media hype, pubs are NOT allowed to open 24 hours - we have to make an application to vary our licence if we want to open later than 11.00 p.m. However, we shall not be applying for 24 hour opening, we really haven't got the energy to stay open all night, so don't worry, not much is going to change at The Globe & Sawmill Inn when the new Licensing Laws come into force [expected to be November].
