The Management

Billy Tierney, Landlord. William, as he is known when he is in trouble, is possibly Sodbury's finest golfer, judging by the number of holidays he wins. He learnt how to cook in Ireland, from whence he originally heralds, and he can do anything to or with a potato. His wry, woganlike humour is only surpassed by his love of poker!

Denise Tierney, Landlady. The Blofeld of the operation, Den is famous for twice having broken the bank at Monte Carlo, she still maintains that she didn't touch anything and only has a vague recollection of actually being there. Her flare for interior design has brightened up the Pub beyond recognition, even the pub dog was sprayed magnolia to fit in!

Front of House Staff

Mark Lewington. Markey Mark, well this isn't really a big enough space to do the man justice so go to www.thelifeandsoul.com to find out the details, suffice to say that mark is to the Squire what ravens are to The Tower of London. He once went travelling for a year but came back after 6 hours because he heard a barrel needed changing!

Tracey Shepherd. Tracey is training to be a Lion Tamer, she spent 2 years as the PA to Right Said Fred on there Eastern European Tour, which is where she found Pav and Oleg. A fabulous Beer Apparatus Pouring Supervisor, Tracey brings a dazzling smile and caring demeanour to proceedings on a weekend night.

Adam Evans. Especially recruited to give the ladies something to look at when they are deciding what to order at the bar, Adam is a trainee catalogue model. When he is not working in the pub Adam hand rears orphaned Seal Pups and spends a lot of time working with elderly people. He is currently the World Champion Under 25 Incontinence Bag Changer.

Adrian Muttram. Ade taught Adam everything he knew about Catalogue Model Posing, a former Miss Brimsham Park (He didn't start shaving until quite late in life), Adrian is blindingly efficient and a whiz with a cocktail umbrella, cherry and a slice of lime. He invented the Cocktail, 'Sex on the beach' after an unfortunate incident in Tenerife with a barman from Estonia.

Julie Fowler. JPF, a fine half marathon runner and a beneficiary of the Squires accelerated graduate employment scheme, in 9 years of working at the Squire, Julie is now a barperson. Julie is famous for having once made a Boddingtons and Black cheesecake that sold remarkably well. Julie is a keen member of the Squire's fencing club. She is in fact the only member and can't stand the smell of Creosote.

Ryan O'Regan Ryan is Chipping Sodbury's answer to Peter Andre, although he hasn't yet found his Jordan!!(Not for the want of trying). With his atheletic physique Ryan is currently in training for London 2012 although the Olympic Committee have yet to confirm whether Heavy Petting will be recognised as an olympic event. With a phobia of both telephone answering and ashtrays, Ryan has yet to complete his NVQ Level II in Bar Monkeying! in

James Gale. Voted Arse of the Year (Clifton & Hotwells), for 2 years in a row, James is dedicated to his job. Then again he should be because he is another of the pubs owners offspring. This has never hindered him in life though and he can often be found in the centre of Bristol shouting, "I'm the only gay in Clifton Village." He only works here during University holidays because of his other "commitments". The recent scandal over his management of funds as treasurer of a Uni society should be dismisssed by all, the money was, and I quote, "just resting in my account."

Emma Tierney Another member of the Tierney Clan! Emma doesn't let her lack of height affect her abilities behind the bar, what a lot of people don't realise is that Emma is only 3ft tall and she cleverly disguises this by constantly walking around on up turned flowerpots. Emma's rapid success within the pub is a classic case of "It's not what you know...it's who you know" as her Uncle Billy owns the place.

Kate Rosenthal.Whilst this would be the perfect place to roll out a string of classic ‘kateisms’ it would be unfair. Kate has dedicated her life to training Dolphins to get along with Tuna fish, she has recently been awarded an EU Grant to carry out research into rear wheel steering systems and has only just finished a thesis on the benefits of bread crusts.

Kitchen Staff

Mark Woods. This talented Chef came to us from the Ritz, a nightclub just outside Barnstaple. He was once a semi-finalist on Masterchef, although his appearances were never broadcast as the scenes of him forcing a potato masher down Lloyd Grossmans throat shouting “Put this through your Keyhole” were deemed inappropriate for before the watershed. Mark has recently become a father and everyone at the pub wishes him and his family well.

Pav Feixova. Pav is from Czechoslovakia, she has been at The Squire for several years, Pav is renowned for her almost permanent smile, this is due to a trapped nerve in her cheek. Her culinary skills are legendary, she can open a tin of fruit cocktail in less time than it takes anyone else to find the can opener, this is because she uses the metal plate in her forehead to smash open the tin on the metal counter top. Amazing to watch, but for heavens sake wear protective clothing as she is yet to perfect her technique.

Dora Miles. Truly a legend in her own Kitchen, Dora has worked at the pub for over 3 centuries, her quiche is possibly the finest in the galaxy. Dora invented sausage rolls and is the only person to have ever got Father Murphy to say “That was a juicy, tender, well done Sirloin”. Dora has the patience of a saint and welcomes change whenever it occurs as it is always for the better. She once beat Delia Smith in a head to head contest, Delia stood not a chance against Dora’s lightening quick right hook.

Maintainance Staff

Catherine Cotter, Cleaner. The little leprechaun of Tralee, well not actually Tralee but a small village not far from Portlaoise, spookily enough. Can you see a pattern emerging here? Catherine can recite the entire Old Testament, word for word in a fraction under 3 minutes, the man from the Guinness Book of Records had to record her record attempt and play it back so slowly that it took 11 months to authenticate, but to be sure every word was there!

Danny, Guard Dog. Makes the Hound of the Baskervilles seem like a child's fairy tale, Danny is the pub Chief of Security although in keeping with the pub's understated style he prefers to wear plain clothes than a security uniform. He is all bark and no bite, but has been known to growl at people with hats and walking sticks.
