FESTIVAL OF THRIFT 2017


THE TOWN IS THE MENU


SALTBURN
We're creating another The Town is The Menu - a community meal for 400 souls at this year's Festival of Thrift, at Kirkleatham.
Last year's meal was a fantastic success when we created and served a menu for Redcar. The menu is based on the histories, tall tales, scandals and rumours about the town. Our menu for Redcar took account of the recent closure of the steel works, with a Salamander at the heart of the meal (The Salamander was the molten mass at the heart of the steel works furnace, which could never be allowed to extinguish). Our Redcar meal also included references to the fog at Coatham, where William The Conquerer was said to have got lost, the world's oldest lifeboat, lemon tops, vertical piers and wind farms.

This year's meal will be all about Saltburn, and so we'd love you to send us your stories and local knowledge, to inform our community banquet... Thank you very much!
Goodbye Old Son
We're very sad to tell you that my dad David Harding died on Saturday. David set up the Waiting Room with mum Jenny in 1985, converting the terrace house at 9 Station Road and helping to establish our slightly disheveled homely style. He was a great bon viveur, with open hearted liberal values, and still loved visiting the Waiting Room to enjoy the good food and humanitarian warmth, which he helped to create.

We'll miss him and remember him fondly.
His funeral will take place at 2pm on Tuesday July 11th at All Saints Church on Dunottar Avenue, followed by a wake reception at The Waiting Room.
