A MESSAGE FROM SUE AND STEVE

We have loved living in Ridlington for the last 20 years, and are only moving to Cottingham for a smaller house, and very small garden!
If anyone would like to visit, we would love to see them, just ring 07446 384184, after Christmas, and we could arrange something!

All our best wishes to all in the village,
Sue and Steve

 

I am sure everyone will want to thank both Sue and Steve for their amazing contributions to village life throughout the years, send their love and best wishes as they move into their new home, and tell them to listen out for those phone calls in the new year!
