I see the newly completed flats above what was once Harmony House in St. Georges Place have been repossessed by Mostyn Estates, according to a notice pasted on the door.

He was certainly in by 12.30pm because he was inundated with customers when we passed.  D)

I would very much like to be 'inundated' with customers Bri,  but today was good to be honest.

OK, it's time to come clean, you were ALL correct lads!
I phoned the pier to check it was open at 10am... from my bed!   Then, nipped swiftly into Cafe Indulgence for a coffee, (Mrs F had made my sandwiches) .. and I opened up around 10.45am.

I can't have any secrets in this town can I?   :laugh: :laugh:

Llandudno Promenade was naturally busy yesterday.

However, we did see a horse on the prom and it left us wondering whether or not owners have to carry poop bags for horses in the same way owners have to do so for dogs.

Any views?

Horses are not meat eaters so I would let them go anywhere apart from the paddling pool in Llandudno. The Queen has somebody following the Household Cavalry to put the proceeds on  the garden at Buck House.

The council have not put up any 'No Horses' signs that I have seen and that would also have an effect on the donkeys.

Dog mess is a great deal more unpleasant and far more dangerous than horse droppings. Dog faeces carry parasites which can cause blindness in children, which is one reason there are restrictions on dog owners. Horse manure, On the other hand , is rather useful and it's not uncommon to see folk taking their wheelbarrows out to collect it for their gardens.

My Grandfather used to get horse manure for his rhubarb, personally I prefer custard!  ;D

They would have been harbour porpoise not dolphins, but still a gorgeous sight :) I love watching them go by - saw about 7 or 8 together last year heading towards anglesey, usually just spot a couple together so seeing so many at once was fab :) i'm always torn between admiring them or trying desperately to get them in my camera screen (i usually miss!)

(very very rare if not never to see dolphins off the north wales coast, sightings are usally mid wales coast and usually in the hot weather. Porpoise have smaller fins and don't leave the water to do a full jump like a dolphin would - they just kind of show their back at the jump. i love em tho!)
