DaveR why do you whind me up,i had decided to give up moaning about them.Next Saturday is the BIG switch on so that still gives the town council a whole week to put the rest of the lights up,they seem to have left the town hall out,the palm trees on Carlton roundabout out,one string has been out all week (the one conected too Game) so we will have to wait and see.The big problem the town has is Cll Bertola is in charge so there is NOWAY they will improve with this man in charge,not a chance in hell.

The Christmas Tree at Bog Island was being wired up yesterday morning. Is it just me or does the top of the tree appear to be missing?

Knowing this Council, it probably exceeded the approved height for Xmas trees, or it's Jewish.   :D

There is no interest in improving the xmas lights from hoteliers,Mostyn Estates,Llandudno regeneration group and of course the town council so i have got it wrong big style,Llandudno does not need to attract any shoppers or tourists to the town over Christmas.

I'm sorry to say Wrex, that apart from the County and Town Council, the shopkeepers, business people and even the shoppers themselves must walk round with their eyes closed to fail to notice the absolutely disgusting state of this Town.  The Main Street is degenerating into nothing better than a third rate open market with our pavements crowded with lots of cheap shoddy goods. (There are obviously some exceptions).  The secondary shopping streets are little better.

The overall situation is further compounded by the number of empty shops, fly posters, unkempt and poorly maintained shop frontages and overflowing waste bins and rubbish strewn pavements.  No one it seems has any pride in the Town anymore.

Unless something is done, very soon, the place will fall apart at the seams.   Sorry to say Wrex, but I think your words are just falling on dead ears, however, don't give up up, miracles sometimes do happen!

Maybe councillor Bertola can go on another jolly to see how other towns do xmas,although he has a free bus pass so it will not cost the council a penny,he can start with Colwyn Bay,even Abergele looks better than us ,Rhyl then of to Bangor and Caernarfon i bet they all look the part at xmas.DaveR you know how to whind me up,ive just been to see my daughter in Manchester and been around the markets and looking at their display of lights makes me cry,bless.

Does this really need to be done on a Sunday?
