Report. Discussions have continued along two separate lines of thought. A self employed cook would need to be subsidised until business increased and this would be difficult out of present funds. It may be possible to get funding which is available from the “Sustainable Communities Initiative” and this will be investigated further. The option of having hot butcher's pies available in the bar every evening has had a very favourable response. Bryn has organised a Pie Competition for Friday 12th November at 7.00pm and has asked local butchers to come with a selection of pies which will be tasted and judged by four Tafarn Cwmdu regulars. The winning butcher will be asked to supply pies to the Tafarn on a regular basis. Colin will be asked to do a poster for the event.
