I did see a little boy from Brussels attempting to fill it!

Possibly, except that particular kiosk also sells candy floss and donuts.

Paddling pool will be disscussed on Tudno FM in the morning,CCBC could;nt give a damn about Llandudno,this little heatwave was predicted so you would think the powers that be would have the pools a priority,NO NOT CCBC they just treat this town with little respect,unless they can screw our visitors by charging to park on the prom.

The empty Paddling Pool situation is just absolutely ridiculous. Is there no-one within CCBC with the brains to open the valve and start filling it up with water?

The state of the Prom gardens is appalling, it looks like they couldn't care less. I also noticed that the size of the beds allocated for summer bedding plants has been reduced yet again by about 25%, the remaining area having a few half dead Lavenders stuck in it.

We're practically in June and the Carlton roundabout and other major flowerbeds in town are just full of dust and weeds.

Grass hasn't been cut in Happy Valley and the water feature appears to have died a death once again.

Very poor.  &shake&  &shake&  &shake&

After receiving all that funding, I was surprised to notice Cafe Cais is closed on Sundays when the coach park was very busy yesterday.

Call me the grim reaper but with such a big event in town could the parks department not have planted up the Carlton roundabout and other things en-route,such a shame that nobody on CCBChas any thought for Llandudno.

The concrete plinths that have been appearing around town are for wooden Alice In Wonderland sculptures, apparently:
