Everything to do with Rhos On Sea.

I see that the old Place Settings shop on Colwyn Avenue (once a tiny branch of Lloyds Bank, of course) is being refurbished and will shortly be opening as a Hairdressers.

No, this is a new thread. You're either thinking of the thread in 'Times Past' to do with Rhos:

...or the thread on one of the old forums.

You're right Dave, the other thread is in Times Past. It was me after all.  ))*

What a shame. I believe it and the newsagents are run by the same people.

this story was in this week's Pioneer, I am amazed at this going on :o

http://www.northwalespioneer.co.uk/news/97176/cctv-bid-to-cut-rhos-crime.aspx

PLANS to combat robberies and vandalism at a Rhos on Sea crime hot spot could include installing a CCTV camera.

It is hoped to site a  surveillance device at the junction of Llandudno Road and Dinerth Road by the Spar store and petrol station in a bid to dissuade antisocial behaviour and criminal attacks.

The initiative was launched by Cllr Roger Parry following a turbulent year for the area including vandalism to a church yard, a shop-keeper attacked outside his own premises, residential break-ins and incidents of alcohol abuse and litter.

A robbery at knife-point at the Spar in November was also a catalyst for the proposal, as it was the second attack of this type in two years.

Talking after the latest robbery, Cllr Phil Edwards said: “Instances like this are absolutely out of character for this area and it’s important they remain out of character.”

Cllr Parry confirmed the motion for a CCTV camera have been supported by a number of councillors as well as North Wales Police.

But although it would be funded and installed by the local authority, the success of the proposal would be dependent on the willingness of local businesses to pay the estimated £1,000 annual maintenance costs.

He said: “From every aspect, it is widely agreed the location would greatly benefit from a permanent surveillance camera linked to an operations baser allowing twenty four hour cover of the area.
“Once up and running it will deter criminal activity to make the area safer for all concerned. But private sector cooperation is vital.”

They're perhaps overreacting to a very small number of incidents. Why doesnt the Spar Garage pay for decent CCTV all round their premises, as that  is the hub of the problems.

At the moment one digger and one dump truck are stuck in the mud by the rocks in Rhos on Sea, I'll put some pics up later

They must still be stuck there because I can still see the two flashing orange lights down at Rhos. There are bright lights nearby so a rescue operation must be going on but it's too dark to tell, good job the tide is out at present.
