The Chicago Tafia Welsh Society commented on Robert Lloyd's blog post Brewer gives reaction to latest Alcohol Concern survey
"It's the smoking ban that's killing the pubs pure and simple. I used to go to my local every Friday after work, meet up with some other lads in the trades, have a few jars and go home. None of us do that anymore."

Profile Information

About Me:
The Chicago Tafia Welsh Society was founded in 1999 to cater to the local expatriated Welsh.

The Chicago Tafia meet up around once a month at one of the local British pubs or restaurants for a few pints, a bit of a chat and to help each other out with immigration concerns etc.

The Chicago Tafia aslo holds a number of other events throughout the year, including:

* Gatherings to watch Wales in the six nations and other sporting events.
* Gatherings to see Welsh bands on tour in Chicago.
* Saint David's day parties.
* The Chicago Celtic Festival in September.
* Bonfire/halloween night parties

Anyone is welcome to join the Chicago Tafia. Whether you've emigrated from Wales, are of Welsh descent, lived in Wales, worked in Wales or are just interested in Welsh culture.

10 Ways to Thank the Lord You're Welsh this St. David's Day

Hi Gwyncy,

Sorry, I only just saw this... In Welsh it would be two 'F's' in English just the one ;)

Don't blame me, I nicked the name after reading 'Mr. Nice' and named it after Howard Mark's old gang in London. It sorts of fits in with Chicago and the whole Murray the Hump connection too.

Hwyl
