Rob (a fellow son of Odcombe) has designed the fantastic new banner picture. I especially like Daisy, it makes me giggle.

A big thank you to you Rob, I know how difficult it was to fit this in with all your other committments.

His web site is on the links page if you want to see more of his fab work.

As you can see we’ve got a new banner picture !!

This is a picture from the Old Odcombe collection. It’s taken from near our front door in Lower Odcombe, although it was a little before our time !!

On the left is ‘The Odcombe Inn’, one of the pubs (I think three) that are no longer serving in the village, if anyone knows when they shut? What they were like? who were the landlords? and any other interesting facts, that would be great. Either add a comment to this post or contact us by email or the comments form.
In the middle of the shot is the Masons Arms, the last remaining and thankfully fine establishment. In fact I may have to go for a pint in a minute, to celebrate the longest day !!

So, the questions on everybody’s lips; who is that lad ? what is he looking at ? and what would the speech bubble say?…………………………………..

  • Hey look, I’ve found an “f” in the road.
  • I’m hiding, you can’t see me.
  • Zider [repeat as required when drunk].
  • Is it tom thumb that we’re following?
  • Your mother is a hamster and I fart in your general direction. [in a bad French accent]

Let me know what you think he is thinking or saying !!!
