Whos going to see it ?......I do not think Disney will be worried.

Conwy seagull attacks get the Disney treatment in new animated film
The winged menace is the subject of a cartoon created in a bid to warn people of the dangers of feeding the birds.

Why don't they just fine the people who feed them like they fine the litter droppers?

CCBC plan to remove the underground toilets at Bog Island and build a new above ground toilet block there.

Heaven knows what they'll look like!
with any luck there will be some consideration towards decent facilities for disabled people

It was amazing how quiet Llandudno was on Valentines night.
We went out, reluctantly, knowing that it would be impossible to get a table anywhere.
But... The Snooze, despite laying on a special menu and extra staff had only about 4 tables booked all night.  The owner said he was puzzled by this.  It's usually busy even on normal nights!
The Gresham had no one in at all, but they no longer serve food.
La Taverna was quiet, as was Johnny Doughs, and every pub deserted.
Seahorse had many tables available.
Mango and Bamboo was completely shut, in fact it looks like it's closed down already!
The Asia looked busy, but it was merely the tables in the window made to look that way.
We chose to eat in the Asia, it was excellent... but by 9.30pm there was not another customer in the place.
Fester...

Was informed that The Snowdon was busy, but that was 'second hand' information.

Llandudno Air Show has already been cancelled this year.
Edward Hiller, of Llandudno Air Show organisers Mostyn Estates, said the new rules are “more exacting” but that there is still huge public support for the air show to make a comeback.
He said: “I’m pleased we made the decision (to cancel) earlier rather than later.
But there is a strong will from the public and other organisations in the town to see it brought back.”

Any news on the air show returning to Llandudno this year?

• 11 June - Welshpool Air Show 2017

• 01-02 July - Wales National Air Show 2017

The Little Orme is lit up most evenings, but I've also noticed that it is sometimes (apparently randomly) in darkness. The ones on the Great Orme are also a bit variable. I wonder how often anyone checks them?

The Crocuses looked quite impressive on the grass verge by Maesdu Golf Club when I went past today

i've never watched Hollyoaks, but noticed this pic on Digital Spy and thought that looks like Angel Bay... so i scrolled, and it is!

So next week Hollyoaks on Ch4 uses Angel Bay, i'll tape it and skip to those bits ;)

I think i have good eyes for the Orme if i recognised it from just the one picture above!!  ;D

Well spotted Pebbles     $good$

The first photo is of Angel Bay and the second is also nearby but looking over Penrhyn Bay and Rhos on Sea.

We saw all the activity from the road when they were filming it, and then read about it on Facebook.
