Yeah, it is really.
I'm assuming that the other guy is a silent partner, to help with the set up, funding.

The other guy owns and runs the Great Orme Brewery.

Conwy county dog fines highest in Wales.

Conwy dog walkers hit with 1300% more fines than anywhere else in Wales
Critics say numbers are evidence of 'overzealous' approach, but council chiefs say dog walkers have duty to control their animals.

Wilko in Llandudno opening on October 11 in Mostyn Champneys and apparently the Office Outlet is going to become a carpet store.

Also, application in for micropub on Madoc St in former cake shop Let Them Eat Cake.
After all what is time, a mere tyranny.

Do what we do on Mull.
Just let the dog out of the front door.
Problem solved for a few hours and the dog has her morning run.

Very busy on the roads at around 1100, today.  Heavy traffic, even by holiday standards.

I love Llandudno in the summer, can think of few places in the UK better to live. That said, traffic issues are a severe gripe of mine. Not sure if it's worse this year because of so much traffic trying to get to Parc Llandudno for Primark or if the town is just more popular.

It's certainly  busier than last year, according to the folk I've spoken to who run the Road train, the coaches, the big hotels and the TIC. That's in spite of the 'orrible weather.

That's completely at odds with everyone I speak to.
Those being, pier concessions, boat trip owners, pub managers, 2 shopkeepers and the cable car owners.

Looks like the crowds are avoiding the pier, boat trips, pubs, 2 specific shops and the cable car owners and instead riding the road train, the Orme coach, staying at the hotels and crowding into the TIC.

 I do suspect the weather's stopped a lot taking boat trips and strolling on the pier. And it may also have affected the cable car. But then, you do tend to pop in every summer and tell everyone it's never been so quiet...  8)
