Matters arising from Minutes of the last Meeting.
* Upstairs sitting room - Thank you to Colin and Chris for reorganising the room. Feedback from customers has been very good.
Colin will look for a suitable fireguard.
* Wi Fi is up and running. Laptop is available for use in the lobby.
* A Directors meeting has taken place to review all aspects of the relationship between Cymdeithas Cwmdu, Tafarn Cwmdu and
the National Trust. Discussions are ongoing and a questionnaire for wider consultation with the whole community will be devised
so that a consensus for the way forward can be reached.
* 6 Nations Rugby events have been well attended.
* Games night started slowly but developed into a very good evening.
* St. David's Day celebrations went well. It was suggested that we use the Vestry next year to accomodate all who attended.
Thanks to Catrin, Judy, Jo, Elinor, Philip and Jonathan for organising
* Calor Gas - Colin asked the supplier to provide prices and information on attendant regulations. It was decided that it would be too
difficult to make it work successfully and the proposal has been rejected.
