Hi Everyone,

What can I say, but thanks! It's been 10 years since we opened the doors at Riffs. From a sleepy (closed) little pub we somehow managed to transform "The Butchers Arms" into a nationally recognised award winning Music Pub.

We simply couldn't have done this without all the help and support of our friends, family, locals, regulars and bands. My only regret is that we didn't take a film crew around with us as it would have made one helluva reality show!

This weekend we are having a bit of a knees up to celebrate and it would be great to see some familiar faces. We hope to get some of our favourite characters from the last 10 years back to the pub and have laid on a three day party to celebrate. Friday it's Metal night to say thanks to the alternative scene that has supported us so well, Saturday we have The Graham Mack Charity Rock Band and Sunday it's back the the old day's with Ode & The Be-Bops plus the famous anniversary Hog Roast. Three nights and lots of fun. We hope to see you sometime over the weekend.

All our very best wishes

Andy, Tiggy, little Ella and the Gang at Riffs xxx
