Anahata,

It is my intention to try and run the Big Birthday Bash.

All we know for sure at the moment is that the current Landlord is leaving and that the pub is not a very attractive proposition for other new tenants due to the rent that the Pubco who own it want to charge.

We should know in the next few weeks if the 1/ if the pub is to shut 2/ if a new tenant is to take over, will they want to carry on with the folk club and planned weekends (fyi, we have a bunch of guests booked for the club nights as well).

If either of these things work against us, we will initially move to the Village Hall for club nights (it is provisionally booked from the 21st onwards).

Unfortunately the village Hall would not be suitable for the Big Birthday Bash in the planned format. Which would leave us with the options of finding a new venue or changing the format. I will make some decisions around this from mid July onwards.

Please bear with me on this.

Paul
